I’m in charge of making the pies for Thanksgiving this year. Right now I am waiting for them to get out of the oven so that I can go to bed. I should be doing schoolwork since the rest of my week is going to be really busy, but this is so much more fun. Unfortunately, we will be short one pumpkin pie thanks to, you guessed who: Jackson.
I made one right before work tonight to get a head start and he decided to help. I can’t believe that he didn’t burn himself!
Oh well, I used a store bought graham cracker crust for that one, so it probably wouldn’t have been anything to write home about anyway. Rest assured that the other ones all have a homemade pastry crust.
Oh, did I mention that Tucker’s new favorite spot is on top of the kitchen table? Yep, if you’re ever looking for him check the table first.
Dad and Mom’s 30th wedding anniversary was this week, so we’re having an open house for them at the Milnor Methodist Church on Saturday. Silly me, I volunteered to make a cake for the party. I was hoping to make a similar one to their original cake, but the biggest cake pan that I can find in town is a 9″.
What the effenheim?
I know there are bigger pans out there, darn it!
My 10″ springform pan will have to do for now. Hopefully I can make a few of the layers early tomorrow morning. I’ll try to take pictures as I go along so that you can see how much time, effort, blood, sweat, and soup ladles Jackson put into helping me.
Count how many times I said “I” in this post.
I dare ya.
