So, you inspired me to attempt your attempt (I was not planning on making pumpkin pie this year, it's the middle of summer where I am!!)...I hope you don't mind, if you'd like to check it out it's here:http://cocala.blogspot.com/2011/12/attempting.html
love your blog, you always make me laugh.

@Julia good question. The meringue was a fun change of pace and definitely works with the pumpkin pie, though I think, ultimately, I prefer my pumpkin pie with a less sweet topping, like your classic barely sweetened whipped cream.

This was charming! Gotta love Martha and your sarcasm! That is one seriously high pie. Kudos on completing that labor of love. I'm loving your blog by the way, fabulous writing.

This looks delicious! But how does the eggy-sugary-ness of the meringue go with pumpkin? Was there a big textural difference?

awww so much to respond to here!

1. It had to come out at some point, I guess! That Matt and I call his parents Mombers and Dadbers.

2. Brock: Guess what else you could use, apart from mac n cheese? Pennies!! (Someone recently told Mare as much.) Surely, you could wrangle up some pennies, couldn't ya? Also, thanks for the tip! I have actually done that before with the dish towel, but must have gotten camera shy. who knows?

3. Hi Shelley!! Your daughter is the best!

4. Hi Sonni! Can we please watch A Wartime Romance soon??

Utterly delightful. 100% charming. And just look at that pie! Holy mountain of meringue.

(Nice use of lentils, BTW.)

BROCK! Your pt. 1 is a bit of multitasking brilliance. "While baking the pie crust, go ahead and make mac & cheese in there..."

2011-11-20T11:56:50.582-08:00

Couple of questions:

1) If i forget my pie weights, can i use 16 oz of dried macaroni & cheese powder packet from a box of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese? B/c i don't generally have "lentils."

2) When popping open a bottle of Prosecco or sparkling wine, i recommend putting a dish towel over the cork while twisting/pulling it open. Then, even if the cork flies out and tries to kill someone, it will have a dish towel over it, ruining its plans.

(That's not a question, actually.)
