Lemon Supreme Pie

Friday, November 28, 2008

Happy Belated Thanksgiving! I hope your Thanksgiving was full of happiness, friends, family, and food. Mine was filled with three of the four. We were stuck here at home for Thanksgiving which meant we weren't able to celebrate with any of our family, due to the fact that they don't live anywhere near us and I wasn't allowed to leave the region. Seriously. So, instead we celebrated with two couples from our ward. It was kind of a Thanksgiving potluck, where we were instructed to bring the rolls, dessert, and ice cream. This may be silly of me, but usually ice cream falls under the dessert category in my mind, so I am still pondering why ice cream was such a vital part of Thanksgiving that it had to be mentioned specifically. While talking about this with EC he said "Don't you always have ice cream at Thanksgiving? My family always does." Silly me, I was under the impression that you ate pie for dessert at Thanksgiving, not ice cream. Anyway, I digress.

So, we took my mom's Award Winning Rolls, cheapo WinCo ice cream, and this Lemon Supreme Pie. The pie is also a recipe from my mom and contains a layer of a lemon-y cream cheese base and then a lemon pudding type filling. I think I used too much cornstarch though, because my lemon filling cracked, sigh.

We had a good time and ate a lot of good food. However, without the family there it didn't quite feel like Thanksgiving to me, so hopefully next year we will be able to talk them into coming up here. Until then, only 26 more days till we fly home for Christmas!
