Double Happiness...

HAPPY CANADIAN THANKSGIVING!

Growing up I got to have TWO Thanksgivings!

Today I would have made some pies for us to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving, but seeing that we still have half of that red velvet cheese cake left over &that I am still stuffed on it and feel its richness in my stomach... I am opting out of pie for today.

This will be the FIRST Canadian Thanksgiving where I do not have Pie!

Maybe I should make a dinner that has some turkey in it?

Maybe later this week I can make the "mini" pies I made last year for Thanksgiving and Halloween. They were so adorable, and really easy to make. Except the lattice on the cheery pies got a little difficult for me.

These were so much fun to make, and so adorable. You can make the little pumpkin ones have jack-0-lantern faces if you want! Got to love Bakerella for all her creative cooking ideas!

(Her site also gave me the idea to make Trevor's hamburger cake last year for his birthday)

So Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Canadians out there!

&Happy Columbus Day to all my fellow Americans, ha :)

Oh how I love these mini-pie ideas! How cute is that! And that way you can try a bite of all the different flavors, and that's my kind of dessert-ing :-)
