The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is Pie Day! The day we make all the pies. Do you call it this too? We are traveling today and sadly not making pies but I like to look at the pictures of pies we've made previous years. This Lemon Merengue Pie is THE BEST.
I've shared my grandma's Lemon Merengue pie recipe in my newsletter so if you aren't a subscriber, now's your chance to sign up.
What's your favorite pie?
Leave your favorite pie in the comments below! I'm always willing to try a new one. My favorite is Cherry Pie!
In my family growing up we always made a pie per person on Thanksgiving. When my kids were little we weren't quite to that level, but now I they are definitely old enough to help me eat all the pie. So we make a big day of it and even sometimes have competition and everyone makes their own pie to compete. We invite friends for a pie tasting and everyone votes for their 3 favorite. It's so fun! If you are in need of a couple of extra pie pans I'm loving this set of pie pans right now.
Apron's for Pie Day!!
Pie day is my favorite because we all make pies together in the kitchen. Everyone is helping and working together in anticipation of their delicious reward. But pie making is messy! One year Mer and I made new aprons to wear for our annual pie making day. Here are some throwback shots.
Look how cute this crew is! Here are some keeping it real photos. We paused from our pie making duties to snap a quick picture. I just kind of made up these aprons and am thankful that they just worked out. Here are the rest of my little helpers, minus one. And Jack is busy eating the apple skins.
Hope your Thanksgiving is filled with delicious food and lovely company and of course PIE!!
Happy Pie day!
