Recipe for blueberry/pumpkin pie?

Question by ?: Recipe for blueberry/pumpkin pie?
I’m looking for a recipe for ‘blumpkin pie’? The first thing I thought was “what an odd combination!” But I heard one advertised on a radio station but didn’t get to contact the lady with the recipe.

We have a whole frozen surplus of both crops from last year, so this would be perfect for the annual picnic held each June.

By the way, I also heard the consistency of the cream used in the pie was the trickiest part to get, so if anyone knows how to get the right texture, don’t hesitate!
