The holidays with my family are all about traditions. Certain people prepare certain dishes, certain days are hosted at certain peoples houses, and poker is played by 9 o'clock sharp! I just love them, and that my family takes the time to pass them on and instill in the next generation where we come from and how to stay connected. I plan to pass these traditions on to my children. Best of all is homemade pies. My Grandma Trish makes great apple pie and for my bridal shower gift she gave me the recipe and all the the tools/ingredients needed besides apples. So I thought what a great time to continue her tradition and get to use my fabulous gift! I am not going to share this recipe with you guys (sorry, some things gotta stay in the family) but I will include pictures.
Mary (my mother-in-law) makes a killer pumpkin pie so I am also continuing her tradition, at the request of my boys, and making pumpkin pie.
Berry pie is my personal favorite
and I make a pretty mean one so I am also making one of those, you know just to keep our options open, HA! Or because I am selfish and want my favorite. While I love our combined family traditions I am excited for Adam and I to make some of our own with our family some day!
You're an animal!
ReplyDeleteI am serious about this baking, cooking, obsession with food man! I have been awake since 5:30 turkey was on BBQ by 6:25. Been to the store, made 7 layer dip, boiled eggs now about to make some deviled eggs! I am like who has the energy for black Friday after this madness!
