Nap Interrupted

 

 

 

How rude!  Mommy said she would take a long nap with me.  Well she only did for like five minutes and then she jumped up and left me for the kitchen.  She said she had to have ANOTHER piece of pumpkin pie.

 

Seriously?  She's already had two slices today!

 

Maggie

 

 

I interrupt Maggie's pouting to share my piece of pumpkin pie with you ...

 

 

 

 

 

Please ignore Maggie.  You know she gets a little bent out of shape during the holidays - always wanting my undivided attention and all.  I told her that it was STILL Thanksgiving weekend and I was not only savoring every moment of the occasion but wanted to savor EVERY bite of the holiday food too.   ;-)

 

Here's the recipe ...

 

Pumpkin Custard Pie

 

1  9 inch pie shell

1 cup pumpkin puree

3 eggs

1 T all purpose flour

1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1/3 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp cinnamon

2 cups evaporated milk

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In large bowl comine all ingredients.  Beat with a mixer until smooth.  Pour into pie shell.  Bake for 50-60 minutes or until set.  Chill in fridge overnight and serve with whipped topping of your choice.

 

I prefer Cool Whip   ;-)

 

Now I must go finish my nap with Maggie.

 

xo,

Kim

:( I had to give up pumpkin pie due to diabetes. Hope you enjoy your pie. I have been eating a few banana chips while my guys eat pumpkin pie over the Thanksgiving weekend.

A slice of pumpkin pie and a nap sounds like the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. La

What a cute post. I always love the Maggie and Marley posts! Thank you for the recipe. It looks yummy, and I will definitely have to try it. I am munching on oatmeal brownies now. Blessings!

[Patty O'Malley]

This is so funny! My little Maltese, Jasper, kept staring at met to pick him up a few minutes ago. I told him, "in a few minutes--I need to have a piece of pumpkin pie."

[Cindy]

Hello sweet Kim,
Yes, please do go finish your nap with Maggie, it's important to keep Maggie happy. I saw a sign yesterday that stated, "With a great deal of training, man really can be a dog's best friend." Hehe, it must be true, Maggie has you pretty well trained.
Hugs and smiles, Cindy

[Lavender Dreams]

Cheers~Pie & a nap sound wonderful! Maggie is darling and I'm sure she wouldn't mind a bite or two.~Chow Kim

[Mary Lou]

If only I were there to join you. Both nap and pie sound good!!

[Loree]

That pie sounds delish (to quote Rachel Ray) . I think I may have to try it next year. Sigh ... Thanksgiving is just over and I'm already thinking of what we'll be eating next year. I am sure that's wrong.

[Patty/BC]

Hi Kim: Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving and time to relax and enjoy the company of friends and loved ones. Enjoy your pie, it is a holiday treat, indulge! And a nap with a warm fuzzy dachie is always a special moment, never pass one up when the opportunity presents itself ; ) Wishing all the best to you and yours!

[Marianne]

That is a sweet Maggie! The pumpkin pie looks delicious! Naps do sound good.

[Jean]

I'm assuming she forgave you after you let her lick the plate. You do let her lick the plate, don't you????

(No Cool Whip for me. Oh, no! Gotta be the real stuff!)

[nimblefingersandsteadyeyebrows]

Oh, thank you for the recipe, I will be sure to go any make one, it looks delicious!

Hi Kim,

That sounds like a good recipe to try.
My pumpkin pie is traditional but my
husband loves it so I try to make it all
winter long for him-even in Florida!
I have made so many of these pies that
I just eye ball all the spices I put in
the pie, no measuring for me.
Maggie looks so sweet in the green chair.

[Threeladybugsliketoplay.wordpress.com]

Maggie looks tender and loving. I love that chair she is sitting in, it looks so cozy. How lovely! :)

[connie]

Thank you, this recipe will be first in the bowl and then in the oven and then in my tummy this weekend...it will be the perfect munchie for tree decorating!

Deck the Halls!

Connie

[Anna]

Thank you for a delicious recipe! But what caught my eye was the beautiful crochet blanket on the top of the chair!! Please share some information about it...did you make it or buy it? Possibly the most beautiful way to stay warm while taking a nap!

[Amanda Brown]

Maggie is stunning!! :) What a beautiful little dog.
