I used a Graham Cracker crust (pre-made) as the last time I made my own crust, it didn't come out too great and I didn't want any mishaps. But I think I'm going to use a normal pie crust next time. It didn't fit with the pie like I thought it would. But for once, my filling actually filled the pie and I didn't have any left over :D
I had a big can of pumpkin (all they had left at any store; oops!) so I froze the rest in a bag. Good to know it will remain good for 12-18 months frozen :D Now I don't have to worry about having too much pumpkin! (Just don't freeze in the can!)
