Food feast

Thanksgiving at our house was mercifully quiet and uneventful. We ended up with a turkey this year, along with the usual sides like cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, and even a green bean casserole.

But the highlight for me is usually dessert. This year, I made a pecan pie and...oddly...a strawberry pie. We had a bunch of strawberries in the freezer from our abundant summer harvest and it seemed like a good idea to clear some out.

And because Kid1 was home for the holiday, I also made cinnamon buns (a very close facsimile of the famous University of British Columbia ones). Mmmm!
