It's finally the holiday season! I'm so excited! It seemed like it really snuck up on us this year... I feel like it's barely October! Anyway, I'm happy that the weather is getting cooler and I can start doing fall and winter things. Like making pie! This morning, I made two pies which will hopefully be enjoyed tomorrow, Thanksgiving day. First, I made the classic: Pumpkin Pie...
Pumpkin pie is easily my favorite pie. A lot of pies are too rich for me, but pumpkin pie got it just right. I'm not sure that there's anything pumpkin-based that I wouldn't be a fan of...
For example, my second pie of the day: Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake...
Yum yum yum! Can't wait to eat it!
I can't wait to have a family, if only so that I'll have more mouths to feed. I love making pies, cakes, cookies, etc., but the problem is, it's just me and Paul here to eat it all. And I don't like letting food go to waste.
So, there you have my accomplishment of the day.
Let's take a look at what Paul's been up to ALL DAY...
A new video game came out this morning, Gran Torismo 5. He's been waiting for it for years, he says. It's a racing game. He did warn me that he'd be playing all day. I should have known to take him seriously. Oh, all the great things he could do with his time if it weren't for video games...
Lindsay and Mike's wedding shower is this weekend. I hope it's as great as my bridal shower was. It will sure be different.
I can't believe how fast these past few months have gone by... It's almost December! It will be our first married Christmas. Let's just pray that we have enough money to actually buy each other presents...
Money is annoying.
