We had a very hard rain last night and it is still raining although not as hard. We're waiting to see if the rain will stop so we can go walking without getting soaked.
Thanksgiving is over and we celebrated the October birthdays. A lot of cake and pie has been consumed and I think it might be time to be a bit more restrained. I found this on Pinterest and it amused me :)
My pumpkin pie
My sister teases me about my liking of Cool Whip so I'm posting this especially for her. It's not that I don't like real whipped cream but Cool Whip, I find, is handier. A tub of it last quite a while in the fridge and is always there to add a little something to a scone ( with lovely strawberry jam) or a small dish of pudding.
I'm off to see if the rain has quit. Have a very pleasant Sunday.
Thanks for visiting.
A lovely Sunday post ... the meme about the heavy socks did make me chuckle.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a rainy day in my part of the UK and plenty more Autumn leaves have fallen from the trees.
I wish you a good new week ahead.
All the best Jan
That sounds like such an interesting book. I like the pie idea (:
ReplyDeleteNot a fan of cool whip, I think it tastes like plastic. I do love pumpkin pie though with whipped cream or even RediWhip. We are supposed to get rain this afternoon. The sky is DARK so I'm sure we will be getting some. Hope it stops by morning so I don't get soaked walking. :). Hope. you got to have a dry walk. :)
ReplyDeleteI never thought abot my socks being heavy! I like your pie either way:)
ReplyDeleteI have never tried pumpkin 🎃 It looks good. I have eaten butternut squash, though...same family, I think. Your book has an attractive cover.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for less threatening skies this afternoon for my walk.
ReplyDeleteYou like Cool Whip, while I always have an aerosol can of whip cream in my frig.
I love pumpkin and squash pie so much but no one in my family likes it so I never get it. So glad you had a nice thanksgiving.

Like you, I do love some cool whip!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Thoreau about that!
ReplyDeleteYour pumpkin pie looks great.....I love it sitting in the cool whip! diane in northern wis
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever tried Cool Whip. A can of 'squirty cream' is handy to keep in the fridge, but I prefer vanilla ice cream.
ReplyDeleteI've read a couple of Jenny Colgan books, she's what I call a 'reliable' writer.
The rain stopped mid-morning here yesterday. It was quite a downpour overnight. The pie looks delicious, but I can't abide Cool Whip.
ReplyDeleteWe also expect a lot of rain.
ReplyDeleteYou have a blessed family and I see a fine pie! Congratulations!
I read Nils Holgerson written by Selma Lagerlöff. A flying journey with geese over Sweden to the North and back .Wonderful!
