I much prefer pumpkin pie to sweet potato, as pumpkin is usually made a
bit spicier and seems less sweet to me. I wonder what that pie crust was
made from that made it so special? I hope you find it again sometime soon.

I'm always stunned when people are totally ignorant of anything out of
their own personal exposure. Zucchini bread for example? I can't tell
you how shocked some people are to something as commonplace (to me) as
that.
