My Thanksgiving traditionWhen I was around 7-years-old my mother asked me what I wanted for Thanksgiving dinner. Without batting an eye I said, "Chocolate cream pie." She said, "That's not a Thanksgiving dish!" I told her she'd asked and that's what I wanted. We've had chocolate cream pie at Thanksgiving every year since then and it's always a favorite. Now I make the pie myself. I've even introduced my in-laws to it; I don't think they've embraced it as a new tradition yet but it was definitely a hit, including the all-important associated tradition of having leftover pie for breakfast the next morning.
What's your favorite Thanksgiving tradition?
the pie looks yummy! our family tradition is the smoked meats; my dad smokes a turkey, brisket, and pork loin and they are all so good! Happy Thanksgiving :)

ReplyDeleteI make fresh apple cake from Eric's mothers recipe. She has been gone a long time but that seems to be special to him.
We don't do it anymore, but I always used to break the wishbone from the turkey with my sister. She ALWAYS won.
