To ensure we have a balanced meal before I dive into the pumpkin pie at dinner time, I have chicken (we have a lot of chicken to work our way through this winter) baking in the oven for the main course along with mashed taters and gravy. It'll be Brussels sprouts for the green veggie.
My clock says it's only 3:17 now and my stomach is starting to growl already.

Oh yum, I'll be right over for some. Now I'm going to have to make pumpkin pie cause I've got a craving for it.
Oh, my dear Mama Pea---we had roast chicken with mashed potatoes for lunch---but hubby likes corn with his-he smushes it in the potatoes like a very large child. I adore him, so I don't say anything....
I won't make a pumpkin pie until T-day, but that photo of yours is making MY tummy growl. Hope it tastes as wonderful as it looks!
Well, I could just cry because I don't live next door! Let's see...if I leave now, I should be there by...2013! That pie looks so perfect!
I can almost smell your kitchen from here! Happy Fall!
Looks yummy! I ate Spaghettio's today. They aren't even that good, but it was my comfort food from childhood ☺
Sparkless - No reason not to have one right now. After all, your Thanksgiving has come and gone!
Sue - Hey! You got through!! I was beginning to think I'd never have a comment from you again!
I'm with your hubby . . . I like to mix my corn in with mashed potatoes. Something about the texture of the two together.
P.S. The pumpkin pie was gooood. Can hardly wait for breakfast for a second piece! What? Custard for breakfast? That's not so bad.
Susan - Not a good time of year for traveling, darlin'. We've just had a very (VERY) damp, dark day. No rain or snow. Did you get the snow you were supposed to?
Erin - The aroma in the house this afternoon was great. It was the HEAT that just about did me in! With the oven on all afternoon and the wood stove that I should have snookered down sooner than I did, I had it up to 75.2 degrees in here. Had to open doors and windows to avoid stuffication!
Kelly - Ha! Have you noticed that commercial foods you remember so fondly from your childhood don't taste nearly as good anymore? I used to love canned ravioli but my mom rarely bought it. Last time I had some (gads, how long ago was that?), it was AWFUL!
I can't wait til Thanksgiving.When we moved here I decided to try my hand at Pumpkin Pie and it came out good.The second year they got better. Now hubstead wants one every T-day:)Can't wait til next year tho cause we will be on the farm.
I almost sobbed when I saw that pie....I LOVE pumpkin pie!! And you know, you're right, why WAIT for pie made from the cooked innards of a gourd....tomorrow may never come!
my family has went plain waco-they all want pizza for Thanksgiving -I said "fine .go ahead ,grandpa and I are having turkey ,you can all go order your dumb pizza" and Ya ,i;m my normal cheerful self
Oh yum to all of it!!!!
Looks yummy! But why do you need chicken and brussel sprouts? Pumpkin pie sounds like a fine meal all by itself. To me. :) I confess we've made breakfast of it before!
Annnightflyer - Well, next year when you're on the farm will be a very special reason for celebration! (You may have to bake two pumpkin pies!)
CR - Apparently a few other people around here were ready for a pumpkin pie besides me. We cut into it last night when CM was here and when she popped in late this afternoon, she commented, "Umm, looks like serious damage was done to this pie today!"
judy - You have a right to be un-cheerful to anyone who would rather have pizza than turkey for Thanksgiving! What's WRONG with those people?!
Ashling - Yup, it was. Yum, I mean!
Leigh - As much as you want of a pumpkin pie for breakfast, huh? I am gonna have to do that . . . soon!
I'm working my way through my feed and saw this.
I LOVE pumpkin pie. Hope this one was as delicious as it looks. I love mine with whipped cream, to the extent that my family jokes it's about a 50/50 pie to topping ratio on my plate. :-)
LindaCO - People actually eat pumpkin pie withOUT whipped cream??! You and my hubby might get into a big fight at the table over the bowl of whipped cream. He is often asked if he wouldn't like a little pumpkin pie with his whipped cream!
