Lovely day of Thanksgiving with friends and family. Missed my MIL and FIL but we will probably venture up their way soon. Still enjoying having my first born home for the holidays (for a few more days at least). I had even been able to go pick up pie and galette dough from the amazing Downtown Bakery in Healdsburg to use for my pie making (ok, the fruit galette is prepared and was flash frozen so we'll have that another time).
But - we had a minor disaster happen late Thanksgiving eve. My hubs was shifting leftovers around in the fridge and came and told me that while he was arranging, the glass pie pan holding my precious three-quarters of leftover pumpkin pie slipped and fell out of the fridge, shattering the pan and destroying all of the leftover pie with the glorious crust. It was one of the best pies I think I'd ever made. And I only had one small slice that night.
Now, I'm a devotee of the leftover pie for breakfast the next day. I would have had it with some of the bourbon whipped cream that was also left over from Thanksgiving evening.
At least I can give thanks for having a roof over my head, family and friends and a lovely meal with awesome wine and some glorious desserts to have shared on the day.
As it's still the "holiday" weekend, we're off to the movies now.
