I do love pumpkin pie! Nom, nom, nom.
For some reason, it's impossible to get Entemann's pumpkin pie at my supermarket these past two years, but luckily the mall has a supermarket, and when we were there for karate we stopped in on the off-chance that they'd have blintzes, per Ana's specific request. (Blintzes are another thing only irregularly stocked close to home.) Not only did they have blintzes, but they had a whole labelled section in the freezer for them! Well, I mean, it said "Blintzes", but it also included empanadas and egg rolls and baklava. Bit of a broad interpretation of the definition of "blintz", if you ask me.
Anyway, they also had a ton of pumpkin pie, so I got one of those as well. I love me some pumpkin pie!
I emailed my mother and sister today and said that if they didn't participate in the menu planning for Thanksgiving, the meal would consist of pumpkin pie for me and celery for them. They laughed and haven't actually given me any answers yet to my question "can I ditch the bird concept or just make drumsticks", but wait and see, I will actually do this to them.
