We brought in the new year in our usual way by gathering with two other couples for games and good food. Our favorite game is Pictionary, the guys against the girls. We got off to a great start this year, but the guys made a stunning comeback and ended up beating us.
As always, we had way too much food. One of the dishes I took was a new recipe for pumpkin pie dip. I thought it was great and so did two of my kids who stopped by the house earlier that day. It didn't go over that well at our gathering, though. Still....I consider it a "keeper" and want to share it here with you.

The dip sounds really good. I think it would be good with apple slices. You should publish a recipe book, Kelly.

Glad you had fun. Not sure I've ever eaten pumpkin. :D
Glad you had fun!!! I could see trying the dip. I just discovered pumpkin muffins and donuts last year and was plesantly surprised.
Oh ho ho, the ginger snaps make this recipe special! Yum-ola!
And here is to a quiet New Years Eve. (We did nothin'.)
Oh, my! Yummy. Maybe I can manage this if I dip something savory or neutral into it. Hmmm. Thinking.

Other than pumpkin soup to which the maker, I'm sure, had added too much salt I have never had pumpkin. I'm presuming by some of the comments left that it is actually quite sweet.
WOW!! i love pumpkin soup!
That looks so yummy!
Thanks so much for sharing it.
B xx
This does sound yummy! I'll give it a try!
I'm guessing from Joey, Tracy, and Betty's comments that folks in other parts of the world don't eat much pumpkin pie? It's a staple in these parts during the fall holidays. And yes, Tracy, this is definitely a sweet dish!
Marion, I think it would probably be really good with apple slices.
Alg, I've loved gingersnap cookies since I was a little girl.
