Now, if you want an *even* tastier pie, instead of pumpkin in your recipe,
substitute butternut squash. I'm quite fond of pumpkin, but the squash seem
a bit hardier in my garden and the vines more resistant to borer insects,
and after making pies with it, I don't think I'll ever switch back.

But for the true pumpkin/squash pie question -- do you use molasses in your
recipe? ;)

to be made into pies...
