I Heart Pumpkin Pie
My parents still insist on having a turkey for Thanksgiving despite the fact that they are going to have to freeze 3/4’s of the bird for later consumption. I’m sure my dad will be enjoying turkey sandwiches and turkey soup well past the new year. I guess that’s what happens when the holiday celebration gets smaller and the dinner stays the same size. Unfortunately it’s difficult to find tiny turkeys and my dad refuses to eat a tofurkey so they will be enjoying the same frozen bird again for Christmas dinner. Although I will not be devouring a bird for the holiday I will be enjoying the fabulous spread of side dishes. I cannot wait for the yummy goodness of pumpkin pie… and cranberries… and sweet potatoes with lots and lots of marshmallows… and mashed potatoes… and buttery dinner rolls. I would start fasting now but I would hate for my stomach to shrink and there not to be enough room for all of the savory goodness. Can you hear me salivating through the keyboard yet?
