#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #October21 #BirthdayCohort with #JudgeJudy @JudySSheindlin & #KimKardashianWest @KimKardashian & ... You?) on #PumpkinCheesecake Day | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass

Holidays Calendar explains #Pumpkin Cheesecake in a report linked through 'that word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find you understand words better if you look at 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum)

The word “Pumpkin (\ #PumpkinPie #PumpkinHead #Punkin)” is built on ancient words that mean Ripe (i.e. |Cooked by the Sun) |Melon, with a Double-|Diminutive suffix.

but those are just the ones that I agree are famous;
