come on over and have some pie
It's the second Monday in October and that means only one thing - Canadian Thanksgiving. Turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie, the works.
Our little 5 lb turkey is about to go into the oven and I made the desserts this morning. You should see my kitchen. Organized I am not.
My pumpkin pie, made from scratch with a little Hokkaido pumkin I bought last week, turned out very...um...let's just say...rustic. Then again, if I stuck an 'artisan' label on it I could probably sell it for 25 bucks.
I made these maple walnut butter tarts on a whim and haven't tasted them yet, but they smell like home. That other home that shares a place in my heart along with this one.
I'm just saying a quiet "thank you" today for all the good things in my life, butter tarts included.
Happy Thanksgiving to all you Canucks out there, near and far.
Hem your blessings with thankfulness so they don't unravel. ~Author Unknown

Have a Happy Thanksgiving, Sweetie! Pumpkin Pie is my favorite Thanksgiving pie too!
We ended up with a massive power outage, last 1.5 hrs! But we also had an incredible dish with yams. Oh I will post this recipe! Incredible let me tell you. Your pie crust does look incredible as usual. We had an incredibly large turkey and incredible stuffing!!!
Glad to see you celebrated!! :)
Happy Thanksgiving! I sure like to try your desserts!

Hopefully it makes the whole day feel a bit more like your "home home".
Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you had a wonderful day and may the next year be full of new blessings!
If you care to share the recipe for the maple walnut butter tarts, I would be forever grateful. I prepare Thanksgiving here in November for 20+ people and am always looking for new recipes to throw in. They look delicious!
This is so very soulful to me, Christina--all of it! Thank you for YOU!
Your pie looks so delicious:) I admire you for making such a great looking crust.
that pie looks fabulous... don't think i've ever tasted pumpkin pie... not really a tradition in australia!
Happy Belated Thanksgiving! And those little tarts look fabulous -- can you tell us how they're made???
Still looks yummy, despite your doubts ... Happy Thanksgiving. Guess I better start thawing a turkey for the US thanksgiving.i
Well, you are quite the Martha Stewart. I'm impressed!
Happy belated thanksgiving, Christina! I hope you and your family enjoyed your dinner!
Oh, yummy, the pie I never had. It looks delicious! Happy Thanksgiving
Are there any left-overs?
Those tarts look delicious. I've missed Thanksgiving two years in a row now but I'll do a catch up turkey dinner this weekend...ciao
