Today is the one-year anniversary of my St. Bernard passing away. I made a pumpkin pie.

It looks really dense on the inside... My husband called this my first baking failure (although no one has tried it, yet)... I want to say it's a learning experience, but I'm not sure what I'm learning. My first thought is the bowl I used for the final rise was too big and me reshaping it this morning was unnecessary (and destroyed any structure it might have had).
Any other ideas?

Yes! My idea is to grab a knife and some butter.

That happens! often it is too much of a rise in the second rise and the oven rise does not work.

I love the scoring job!

Make croutons, bread pudding or stuffing.
