Pumpkin Pie: It Rocks

Every year around this time I get super excited about pumpkin pie, I love pumpkin pie, but then I eat too much pumpkin pie which results in my love dying a little. Like a one night stand gone terribly wrong I cannot make eye contact with my favorite pie for a few months. But that has not happened this year, yet!
Does anyone have good recipes to add to this post or photographs of their pies?
Perhaps a pie baked from the wholesome natural gourd tastes immensely better than one scooped from a container. Certainly, the original cooking process is more time-consuming and messy. However, it could offer a culinary connection to our nation's foremothers. And since I still had a fully intact pumpkin left over from Halloween, I decided to find out.

I've had pretty good luck with a very basic recipe. It's based on the one you'll find on the back of the canned pumpkin, except (a) I double the spices and (b) I leave out the extra 1/2 C of plain milk.
You can use other winter squash and pumpkin variants. For example, in the 23rd photo, mine used red kuri squash.
