Happy November!

This is my favorite time of the year. Thanksgiving is a mere 23 days away. This also reminds me that a couple of weeks ago (after a couple beers) I offered demanded that I make ALL of the pies for Thanksgiving this year. I also requested demanded that there not be any store bought pies sitting next to my homemade pies. I'm sorry but... I love baking, my pies are better then Marie Callender's, and last year I was a little peeved that I took the time to make sure everyone got some homemade pie love, and then someone just plops down some store bought pie like it's as awesome as mine. No. I'm putting my foot down! I think everyone gets to have at least one thing that they are completely irrational about, and I guess this is mine.
