Four years ago today my then boyfriend bought me a pumpkin and wrote Happy Anniversary on it. It was our four month anniversary. It’s kind of funny because today I couldn’t even remember how many years we’ve been together.
So every October I nag my now husband to get me a pumpkin to celebrate not only the sweet gesture but also the beginning of what I like to call pumpkin season. The official pumpkin season starts in September and ends in March. But my pumpkin season starts October 1st and ends January 1st. This is the time that I crave nothing but pumpkin pie. And have been known to eat nothing but pumpkin pie.
So every October Jay brings home a gigantic pumpkin. I cut it up, roast the seeds and make a pie. (It wasn’t until recently that I learned that those gigantic pumpkins aren’t for pies and that there’s a special pie pumpkin. You would think that being married to a man that sells produce I would know this but I digress.)
This year is no different. May nagging started on cue on the 1st. He’s still yet to bring home my pumpkin but eventually he’ll get tired of hearing me harp on and on about pumpkins and get me one. But I’ve got a great idea to make pumpkin vodka this year, as well as a pie. So to the internet I go to find an infused pumpkin vodka recipe.
Hubby has promised to get me a pumpkin tonight. Hopefully I’ll soon be sharing my recipe for infused pumpkin vodka. If anyone has a recipe of their own, please do share.
