Happy Thanksgiving


 Today's dessert of pecan pie is being served at the counter.  The Autumn blocks are from my sister.  The sugar mold and stand are from Trade Days in Canton, Texas. 

 I'm using my Johnson Brothers Friendly Village dessert plates.  The turkey was painted by my Aunt Kitty years ago.  

My Mom bought me this cute pilgrim couple.

These darling shapes on my pie are from a set that I won over a year ago from Cuisine Kathleen at her linky party Let's Dish!  The fun shapes are perfect for accenting a pie.  I love them so much, Kathleen!  Kathleen hosts her party every Wednesday.  Please be sure to visit!


The pie crust recipe is a new one and comes from Anita at Aunt Nubby's Kitchen. The recipe makes three pie crusts, which come in handy when you freeze them.  The dough is easy to roll as long as your surface is well floured. The recipe has vinegar and an egg in it and comes together very quickly.  If you'd like to try it, the recipe can be found here.
My pecan pie recipe can be found here.

  9. I'm so honored that you shared the pie crust, Kitty! I made a pecan pie today too using that same crust. The crust also handles easier when it is well chilled. I love the cute cut outs on your pie! Happy Thanksgiving!

  18. Happy Thanksgiving Kitty, you sure know how to dress a pie! Pecan is a favourite, among many, but I usually just make tarts for hubby and I.

  24. Hi Kitty, the cut out shapes are such a fun addition. I want to try this crust recipe some time. I have one called, 'never fail pie crust' that calls for canned milk instead of water. It's pretty good, but always like to try different techniques. I make my moms recipe for pecan pie. It has dark karo. Our family loves it. I'm sure yours is delicious also! Never met a pecan pie I didn't like. It's one of my two favorite pies. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
    hugs,
    Jann
