Personal Notes:
Pumpkin pie was my favorite dessert when I was little. I was terribly disappointed when I ordered pumpkin pie at a restaurant once. My mother explained to me that the pie I ordered had a strong taste of ginger, which is a spice often used by other bakers in pumpkin pies. This one is my mother's recipe, with cinnamon and cloves and no ginger. My favorite.
