Sticking to Tradition

I like to make pies. But just mostly do so once a year in November. Sometimes maybe a strawberry pie in the summer, but mostly just Thanksgiving.

I realize tonight I should really practice more than once a year. My crust tonight is less than perfect. Which makes me grumpy. I'm using them anyway because I don't have the heart (or time...or energy...) to make them again. So my pumpkin pie crusts are TOO crumbly, but hopefully the wonderful filling will make up for the crust dust.

Making the same pies as last year.

And this one here.



Happy Thanksgiving, Friends!

Happy Thanksgiving! I bet you are already in line somewhere for the sales! Kidding. You are done your shopping.

I do NOT like to make pies so I am very impressed with both of your creations...that apple one esp. looks yummy.

Hope you had a great day!

I'm sure the pies were delicious...even the most crumbly crust can be divine.

If you're still looking for the perfect pie crust, I LOVE the all-butter one from smitten kitchen. After trying countless recipes, it is now my go-to pie crust recipe (for the three or so pies I make a year! :)

That Brown Betty Apple one sounds amazing!

Best,
Sarah
