Happy Thanksgiving!

 We plan to gather for dinner with my baby brother, his bride and our Mother.  They are doing the turkey.  I made the pumpkin pie without a crust, green beans with bacon and the mashed potatoes.


Most people are traveling a long way for Thanksgiving, we will hop in Ranger Blue and drive a half of a mile.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

Nice! 1/2 mile is perfect for travel.
We aren't going anywhere which is pretty standard for us.

We will probably have some hunter folk stop by for a visit with hubby.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I’m living like you. I’ll go to the feast on my Kawasaki Mule. I was assigned rolls and mash potatoes. I’ve got those mastered.

I hope you had a wonderful day with loved ones.

Our turkey is smoking in the grill outside, in mostly sunny weather! There's a lull in the prep now as we did a lot yesterday. The Macy's Thanksgiving Parade is on the TV on my right as I type. Fun.
Happy Thanksgiving, to you and yours, Connie.

Without a crust? At that point wouldn't it just be a pumpkin flavored custard?

We raise and pressure can Hubbard squash for our pumpkin pies and I generally use two canned pints per pumpkin pie. To can squash, it must be cut into cubes and so a pint won't produce 16 ounces of pumpkin puree that most recipes call for. So I generally end up with a bit extra that won't fit into the pie plate with crust. I just pour that into a ramekin and eat it like a custard. It does taste good that way but I prefer the texture with a well made crust.

Sounds like a perfect plan. Happy Thanksgiving!
