bfroberts Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) I really, really want to use Pa-rum-pa-pumpkin Pie, but I know no one but me would get it. I'd probably go with Holiday Pumpkin Pie. Edited October 26, 2015 by bfroberts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I like Mrs. Claus Kitchen. It just sounds and smells like something she would be baking in her kitchen but Holiday Pumpkin Pie sounds good too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Mrs. Claus Kitchen has a very homey feeling.But there's possessive punctuation missing in there I think... Lord, it has been too long since I had an English class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I was wondering about that too Oldglory! LOL!I'm not sure if it would be Mrs. Claus' Kitchen or Mrs. Claus's kitchen. I work at a school so I'll ask one of our English teachers tomorrow. I should know but I'm just really not sure! Oh wait, I'll ask my youngest son. He was an English major in college. Let me see what he thinks. I hope all that money was well spent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 My son says it would be Claus's and my husband says it would be Claus'. Here's what I found online. "The AP Stylebook says to add just an apostrophe for the possessive form of a name ending in s; the Chicago Manual of Style says to add a second s as well". So I guess either way is ok!

Candybee Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 The punctuation question is easiest to settle by going with Holiday Pumpkin Pie. I am liking the sound of it more and more plus I find simple is often the best and most elegant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably go with Holiday Pumpkin Pie.Follow your heart. Easier for people to remember which pumpkin scent they bought out of all the other ones out there.

Candybee Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 I like the great pumpkin name for fall. Will have to remember that one. Normally I name my pumpkin pie "pumpkin patch" during the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
