Never met a pie I didn't like

Not that I'm taking credit for this line ... but

"Please remember to set your scales back ten pounds"

Enjoy your Thanksgiving ...

At my mom's and she just brought to me a slice of lemon chess pie. Sheer heaven. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I was just getting ready to say that. Raspberry or blackberry can't be beat, served warm with vanilla ice cream. Whole Foods makes a nice one, for a kings ransom, during raspberry season.

Check your pie before departing the store.

This has been a Thanksgiving public service announcement.
I saw the same thing tonight at Whole Foods in Cary. The label said apple but I could see it was berry...blueberry I think. Anyhow, methinks $12.99 is crazy for an apple pie anyway. Even a quasi apple blueberry one.

Pecan pie rules in my world! My neighbor, though, used to make a Green Grape pie from unripened Mustang grapes with a custard filling. It had a sweet/sour flavor that was unlike anything I have ever eaten. Gave my Pecan pie a run for the money!

As a standard rule, I don't buy pies.. but I'd have been livid!

Also - I don't care for pumpkin pie.... don't care who's recipe. A good crust is a must on all pies, but pumpkin just is far from my even top 10. A good homemade sweet potato pie is a great substitute, though, or even better.

I make a mean sour cream apple pie with an almond brown sugar topping that is literally to die for. I prefer that to anything.

BUT - I am making a pumpkin pie, a peanut butter pie (for my husband), and a sour cream apple pie for just the 4 of us this year. We will be rather pie heavy... but happy, this year!

OK, that bourbon pie looks amazing.

That stupid Whole Foods pie was totally outrageous in price so I wanted to make sure I switched it for the right one. They are delicious as well!

I just learned there is a New England tradition of eating pie for breakfast on Thanksgiving - can anyone confirm? Either way, I may need to start the tradition here. Mmm, pie.
