The joyous day is finally here! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
After sleeping in and watching a part of the Macy's Day Parade, madness in the kitchen began!
Actually, there wasn't too much madness because I made the pies yesterday.
We had our Thanksgiving meal around 1:30 so that we could have a break and have dessert, then go again for round 2 later tonight. Even the animals got Thanksgiving dinner today! Kuma is a very sleepy puppy right now, vegging on the couch with Mommy and Daddy. Kyu is stuffed and tired as well.
Now, some photos! :-) Below is the preparation of the bread cubes for the stuffing. Gary and I always make homemade bread, so we decided to use some for our stuffing too. Kuma is very curious.
The bread cubes have been toasted in the oven.
Preparing the turkey to be put in the brine. Kuma wants to eat it.
Leah's pie crust recipe! Gary and I put in partitions so we could do half pies.
Half pumpkin, half pecan pie before baking.
Fin!
Half coconut cream, half chocolate cream pie!
Photos from today:
Corn pudding prior to cooking. Having our awesome standalone Kitchen Aid mixer was so helpful! Thanks again to Pavel and Kim :-)

I was thinking of doing a six way partition with opposite peach, cherry and apple slices.
ReplyDeleteIt would need three partitions.
