Following up the last post, I was shocked yesterday when I went to the grocery store to buy canned pumpkin for this recipe, only to find the shelves completely empty. I even went to another store that's kind of tucked away in the corner of nowhere, and they were just about out (so, I stocked up...). I'll have to read up on making and storing pumpkin puree (I've seen plenty of fresh pie pumpkins around) - it's only October 4th and pumpkin yummies season still has almost two months to go! Anyway, I made these last night, and they were just awesome. So cinnamony and pumpkiny delicious (and I loved the touch of ginger). Thank you, PJ. :) Yes, this could be a big problem this year, with the terrible pumpkin crop. NO pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving? Heaven forfend!! Did you know pumpkin is America's second favorite pie after apple? Maybe not this year... Glad you stocked up - PJH
