When we took turns going around the room saying what we're thankful for this year I picked "laughter." Mr. Bingley's high pitched sequel is currently at the top of my favorite sounds! (Last year, if I recall correctly, it was a really cozy bed--I was more tired with an almost one year old than an almost two year old!) And after all my talk about which pies to make we kind of did go Pie Sky crazy! The kids favorite was the bottom shown--chocolate caramel crunch, from Dorie's Desert Bible. But even against 7 other delicious--delicious--pies. . .cranberry walnut tart still one my vote for very very best. But Chocolate Pecan was a very close second.
This Thanksgiving I was spoiled with the best of both worlds. Mr. Handsome's side of the family and my side all together in my very own home.
I think I am as happy as can be. It could have only been better if the rest of the siblings could have joined us! I especially thought of you three and your dear families when your father and mine said a very sweet and thoughtful prayer over our gathering. You would have loved hearing it, I am sure, but we know you were all in happy places celebrating with your other halves. But we did miss you!!
Happy Happy Thanksgiving, dears!
What are you thankful for?

I am thankful for you and the beautiful pictures you have posted here. Your table was gorgeous enough to eat, not to mention the pies.
I am Thankful my sister lives here! We had such a nice time, and she LOVED the cranberry walnut tart. I have plans to make it for her birthday. Thank you for the recipe.
That is Thanksgiving with a capitol 'T'. Wow. What happiness.
Thank you so much for hosting! I LOVED it. And the cranberry walnut tart is now on my favorite's list too.
The great pictures bring back such wonderful memories. We loved celebrating Thanksgiving with you and your family. It was all great. But my new favorite was the apple/cranberrie pie as it reminded me so much of rhubarb and that always brings back childhood memories for me. Love you all.
I'm so sad we weren't there! Your table looks beautiful, and the pies too. Miss you guys!
