Sour Cream Lemon Pie


I planned on trying this earlier, but things were busy last weekend. Busy in a good way. Family, friends, food... Thanksgiving! So snatching time between loads of laundry and while baby slept, today I made time to make this: 

{Maybe it would be better to make this at Easter. It looks a little out of place on my Christmas table cloth.}

I found the recipe on Pinterest awhile ago. And being a huge fan of all things lemon, I decided to make it. Pinterest is dangerous. It is yummy! We have not eaten it yet, but I had to lick the spoon after putting the filling in the crust. It is so tasty. I think I am going to add a little lemon flavoring to the whipping cream when I make it... Then it will be perfect. Well almost. Don't judge the pie crust. I am still trying to master a pie crust with my food processor. I missed the step of flattening my dough ball into a disc before refrigerating it {baby woke up}, and then he was in the front pack while I rolled it out. He is getting too big for the front pack. His head was blocking my view of the crumbling pie crust. Maybe that is best for more reason than one{cute head, ugly crust}. The texture of the crust is still nice and flaky, so the only flaw, looks. It is sweet spirit pie crust, perfect filling.



Pumpkin Roll


As you can see these delectable pumpkin rolls are on my lap in our car. We are taking them to Prince Eric. I think they passed the test. You see, Pumpkin Rolls are a sweet my Mom makes at Christmas time. Everyone loves them! When I asked my husband what I should make to take to his folks for Thanksgiving, this is what he requested. I'd never made them before, but I've been in the kitchen when Mom made them lots. So, I decided to make three of them instead of just one. Good thing Prince Eric came to town to help my hubby and I to eat the extra! Glad I didn't mess them up. We enjoyed their yummy pumpkin and cream cheese goodness!
