Well, more likely corn...but...

It's Pie Day! 🥧

Each year I delight in baking pies on the day before Thanksgiving. 

However, this year, my left wrist is having an issue with tendonitis, so we're buying two pies 

from the wonderful Red Hen Bakery nearby.  We ordered Pumpkin and Apple, and I'll make a Cherry Crisp.  I think we'll be okay...though I sure will miss making that flaky crust. 

Mind you, we tested local pies to find just the right mix of flaky crust and tasty fillings!

What's your favourite?

Doubly Wonderful!

Susan amazed me again!  Since I gave the Butterfly quilt
that Susan made for me to VT*Grand (who was home
sick when it arrived), Susan made me a duplicate,
so that my granddaughter and I can each have one!! 
🦋 Susan is a MARVEL! 💛
(Mizzen agrees, proving it the cushiest spot in the house!)
