Pumpkin Pie

Alex had been wanting to make a pumpkin pie for a while so last night we went to the store and he got all the stuff . . . Canned pumpkin, spice, whipped cream ("In a can!", he insisted). The only thing we did not get was condensed milk. Alex was insistent that we had some, and I thought we did, too.

We got home, poured the pumpkin into a bowl, then discovered that we had only evaporated milk. I had to run down to Albertsons to get condensed. As Alex was stirring I convinced him that condensed milk tastes like frosting, and he nearly licked the can clean!

Alex took a shower while his pie cooked them enjoyed a slice before bed. His only two complaints . . . It was too hot, and the whipped cream was melting.

Tiffany just sent me a photo that illustrates how much Alex is still enjoying his pie today for lunch.
