In the comments to my pear tarte tartin post over the weekend I promised to post the recipe for my chocolate pecan pie. This is one of the deserts I usually make for Thanksgiving, so here you all go. If you all are really good, I might put up my peanut butter cup pie, which …

As God As My Witness
This just never gets old. Like a good Christmas Carol: Meanwhile, I made my ‘test’ turkey today.
