What is up with no pumpkin in the stores? Unless my mom was looking in the wrong place(s)?
Since I am not able to shop I cannot go look for it and I have been really looking forward to trying it mixed with my vanilla yogurt or making some sort of pumpkin custard-y treat in a cup. So .. what can I make with vanilla yogurt, cinnamon, cream, butter, eggs, vanilla, splenda, and really no other flavorings? lol
Also would like to try some of the sugar free syrups I've read about (Da Vinci's et al) but I am sure mom would not be able to find them so I have to wait until I am better healed to venture into the store again.
I did go shopping in the middle of August but my back gave out on me by the third aisle so I had to go sit on a bench and wait for mom to finish for me.

Have her look where the baking stuff is, that is where I find it. Or she could always ask at the store. Just be sure she doesn't get pumpkin pie filling...she wants to ask for the plain pumpkin which is unsweetened and probably what you are looking for.

Some stores in some regions don't have pumpkin. Nestle, who makes about 90% of the pumpkin, announced a shortage last year because they had severe flooding in areas that they grow pumpkins. It was a problem last thanksgiving, and they estimated that they wouldn't have enough canned pumpkin to get through 2010.

I ran into that problem about this time last year as well. There just wasn't any. Have your mom look with the other pie fillings in the baking isle, as Fry120 said. Just make sure she knows to get pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling. Good luck with your weight loss. The higher our weight, the more impossible it looks, but I know you can do it. It just takes a little self love and a LOT of courage.
