when exactly did i become a martha stewart wannabe?

last year i made this for the "pumpkin pie" contest at work. they said it didn't actually have to be pie, as long as it was made with pumpkin. i called this my pumpkin - pumpkin cake.


this year i stuck to the rules. i made this from scratch. i cooked the pumpkin, i seasoned it, i made the crust, i cut out those freakin leaves. i did it all.
