Thanksgiving Tradition

In case you're unaware, it's Thanksgiving Weekend here in Canada - one of my favorite holidays! We've been busy preparing for our big family meal ... pies are baking, the turkey is cooking and the house smells like a delicious blend of nutmeg and cinnamon! I just love this time of year!

One of my favorite Thanksgiving Weekend traditions is going to the farmer's market near my house to select a pumpkin. I went today after church and had so much fun - the weather was just *perfect* .... here are some photos I managed to snap ....


And here is a sneak peek at some of tonight's desserts .....

The pumpkin pie (the one with the criss-cross design & the heart) was made by yours truly (aka me). The little apple tart was made by my mom. A blueberry pie is currently being baked, too. Mmmmmm! Cannot wait.
