You started with pumpkin soup, than pumpkin cake. There were still a lot pumpkins left so you cooked them and added some sugar. Than fried them like french fries. Deep fried them for good measure. Created a pumpkin sauce for a stew and used that pumpkin sauce to make a dressing for the salad.
After all this pumpkin you had enough to get your waifu a robo-suit.
