Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving means...

PUMPKIN PIE!!! WOOOOO!!!

Attempt # 1: made 2 pumpkin pies by following the recipe on the can of pure pumpkin. this was one of those times when i should've trusted my instincts. the can said i should add 1 1/3 c. of milk... MILK, and a lot of it. it didn't seem right to me (b/c it wasn't) but i did it anyway and they didn't cook at all b/c they had no substance! completely runny. threw 'em out.
Attempt #2: made 2 this morning... still in oven but the consistency makes me think these ones will work out b/c i used EVAPORATED MILK. yay! knock on wood they work out.

Thanksgiving also means turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy!
YUM!

the downfall of this time of year? midterms
stressing me oooouuuutttt but hopefully i do reasonably well.
HOPEFULLY

also, my lovely little sister is going on a cruise that was free w/ her friends family. they are going to the caribbean. so while i'm doing midterms on the top of a stupid mountain, alison will be on a huge luxury boat in the caribbean.
great.
