let them eat cake. and pie.

Pumpkin pie. Apple Pie. Cherry Pie.

Reece Cake. Chocolate Bunt. Pecan Strudel.

Banana Pudding. Mint something. Butter Cream.

And Caramelised Casserole. Of a sort. The name of the sweet-potato-and-butter-flavoured-brown-sugar-with-pecans-on-top-pie escapes me.

Generation ‘X’ took on the Turkey and more. Our mothers took photos. Their’s stood by and looked the lady. (My grandma is delicate and perfect and pure European.)

Everyone brought a sweet. “Whatever you fancy.”

They fancied southern…comfort…food.

Sugar for thirty – times two.

   doesn’t look like any of you have over-indulged!
   Those desserts sound quite good. Tunnel of fudge cake anyone?

   Sounds amazing. My husband and I finished off the only dessert we made this year, an apple almond tart, in just three days’ time. Now what? That simply isn’t enough sugar for two for Thanksgiving.

   But after our marathon cooking session Thursday, it was all we could do if we wanted to be able to eat some time before midnight. Even though we are only two, the sugar for thirty, times two, would have been divine. Pumpkin pie, cherry pie, and banana pudding, especially. Glad you had fun and lots of sweets.
