Pumpkin Pie and Remembering Grandma
My husband has been hinting several days that it's time for pumpkin pie. I have to agree with him. As I am writing this, the smell is so wonderful I can't wait to get a big slice and a big dollop of whipping cream. I guess that means an extra several laps around the pool this evening. :(
I never make a pumpkin pie that I don't think of my dear sweet grandma. I make my pumpkin pie just the way she did. I can still see her little chubby hands holding a knife and slicing three slices of butter to put on the top of her pie. I always put butter on the tops of my pumpkin pies for no other reason than in rememberance of her. I loved watching her cook and she was a wonderful cook. I loved spending weekends with her because she would play with me and she always made me something wonderful to eat.
I made an extra pie for our vet. He has helped us so much with our animals.....just a little thank you gift. Well, the timer is calling me and I must go. :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
