  somewhere out there…in a cupboard – FERMENTING…. is a fine gift of this taste of America.  this is what it looks like a pumpkin bread kit but also the non traditional way to send internationally a pumpkin pie try… if one remember that the canned filling of the pumpkin is also good for pie   all that is required is a piecrust which is locally available and so ass to not waste the kit, one can substitute ….zucchini or bananas with optional nuts to complete the kit if poaching for a pie.     yes, Woman, I’m smiling at you but wagging that finger that says winter is gone spring here for you best get after it or pie season will be over!   HUG.
