At least your pie didn't get mouldy and start growing something the biotech industry might be interested in. <br /><br />By the way, I heard the first thanksgiving was celebrated by Spanish explorers in Texas at San Elizario in 1598. Some people say perhaps even earlier, by Spanish explorers in Florida in 1565. It's amazing what you can find on Wikipedia. :)Hitchhiker42https://www.blogger.com/profile/17574465382591441135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4655771233639274287.post-19133712040913747562011-11-25T06:08:22.871-08:002011-11-25T06:08:22.871-08:00Hope the second pie was delish.

I think he should be in charge of the pies all the time.

Save empty water bottles or the smaller coke plastic bottles. Rinse them, fill them with water, replace the screw on tops tightly and freeze. When you need to do keep something like your pumpkin pie cold, just sit it on top of a bunch of those frozen water bottles in the cooler. I didn't have room for my turkey to brine in my fridge so I put it in the brine, in a clean Rubbermaid bucket and stuck that in the ice chest with frozen water bottles around it.

Still don't know why. I started cooking turkeys when I was 17 and I had never had that happen before. Luckily a local eatery was serving roast turkey for the week and we were able to purchase enough turkey slices and gravy to feed the gang--and our turkey went back in the oven!Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4655771233639274287.post-58691135439436222032011-11-24T18:15:12.544-08:002011-11-24T18:15:12.544-08:00I'm so sorry your pie was ruined.....that stin...I'm so sorry your pie was ruined.....that stinks!
