Woke up to a mountain covered in snow (behind the across-the-street neighbor's house)!
Ugly pie crusts (and messy counter).
Pumpkin pies, before baking. Ugly, but tasted GREAT!
Roll dough, ready to rise. That's a recipe I need to post!
Had to have some breakfast to keep up our strength - gingerbread pancakes on the griddle.
Here's what the doggies did most of the day - loafers!
Over at GolfDad's house I got a lesson in how to make caramel popcorn.... and also, a lesson in how NOT to make it (burnt sugar and popcorn makes a horrific stench!). Will post the recipe soon.
The roll dough got turned into clover leafs (this is pre-baking).
A couple of Mom's CrockPots got put to use - the smaller one keeping stuffing warm, the larger one heating up the make-ahead mashed potatoes.
Mr. Mamie kept himself meaningfully occupied (and cozy).
Snickers didn't look all that thrilled to have us in his house.
Niece and Nephew came appropriately attired.
Mrs. Igor is considering the implications of salad... or, missing Mr. Igor, who is on the road driving his truck. :(
Nephew and GrandmaT dig into salad.
Finally, the star of the show is ready!
Time for some cards!
GolfDad and Nephew.
Nephew, GrandmaT, Niece.
Mr. and Mrs. Mamie, looking dorky and over-stuffed!
Niece and Mrs. Igor, making their moves.
