    Pumpkin Pie vs Sweet Potato Pie

    Which you prefer?

    Or...do you like other kinds of pies instead?

    There's a constant struggle in my household during Thanksgiving and Christmas...the ladies of the house prefer sweet potato pie...I dig pumpkin pie more (especially with whipped cream topping, yum, lol).

    So, we compromised...and usually get both.

    I also like apple pie.

    Anyway...for you Oakland peeps...non-profit Uhuru, in conjunction with local bakers...offer killer pies during these holidays...it's our fourth year buying pies through them...and let me tell you, the pies are really friggin' awesome, no joke.

    Last year, I bought a premium pumpkin pie from Whole Foods, and I'm sorry, the Uhuru pumpkin pie blows it away...it's way more delicious (cheaper priced too).

    Oaktown people, order yours today!!!

    With pumpkin pie...I tend to drink coffee with it instead...go figure, ha...

        like both. A few years ago Mrs. TBolt cooked an actual pumpkin and it ended up looking nothing like the processed goo that comes out of a can. It was really good tho in pies.

                I like both, but I prefer Pumpkin pie. However, I have a Sweet Potato pie in the fridge right now.

                    I went to Safeway yesterday for my Thanksgiving shopping, and was really disappointed they had no Sweet potato pies, so I got pumpkin and cherry. My old lady cart (nope, don't have a car) was so full that I couldn't buy the Uhuru Sweet potato pie at the stand outside. I may have to go back b/c I tried a sample and MAN is it good! If I don't have time, it'll just have to wait til Christmas. (they'll be out there again, the lady told me).

                      I like pumpkin pie and pecan pie. Hopefully this year I'll be able to make a pecan pie for Christmas. Yummy!

                          Neither!
                          I like pecan, coconut, key lime, lemon meringue, and chocolate silk, but not pumpkin, apple or sweet potato.

                            I don't do any pies... but my husband requires apple, pumpkin, and lemon meringue. Why *I* am the overweight one makes NO sense!

                              I've never ate or even seen a Sweet Potatoe pie before. I only eat pie on Thanksgiving,usually pumpkin,pecan and apple.
