Saw this in cyberspace:
Somewhere there’s an Aunt Betty roaming the grocery aisles looking for the ingredients to make her famous Thanksgiving dish that no one in the family likes.
Is there an Aunt Betty in your family? 🙂
Ahem…
What is your least favorite Thanksgiving food?
I know, I know—we usually talk about our favorites, right? But today is different.
My least favorite Thanksgiving food is—wow! I really hate to admit it, but it’s pumpkin pie. Especially store-bought pumpkin pie. I’ve just never been a fan of pumpkin anything.
I had to keep it a secret for a long time because my mother and both grandmothers were so proud of their pumpkin creations . . . and I didn’t want to hurt their feelings. So I would take some and make sure no one was watching when—well, you get it.
How about you?
Is there a Thanksgiving food you’ve always hated? And maybe had to hide it like I did? It’s okay, go ahead and spill those hated beans. You’re safe in these halls.
Green beans, no matter how they’re dressed up.
Not a pumpkin pie fan, either, but I’ll take it if it’s heavily doused with whipped cream. Whipped cream covers a multitude of sins.
Hi there, This is a little note from Aunt Betty.
Actually I’m an apple pie builder and people beg me to bring my pies to gatherings. But I’m with both of you. Pumpkin is not a food.
Happy holidays.
Betty Kuffel
I can testify from firsthand knowledge that Betty’s apple pies are the best in the universe.
But I do like pumpkin pie also, esp. Costco’s.
Green bean casserole? That should be recalled by the FDA.
