I hope your Thanksgiving looks like this...
And not like this....
If you're a Black Friday shopper, I hope you're faced with lots of available shopping carts....

However you celebrate -- alone, with your family, or with a ton of people, I hope you have a lovely day. I've celebrated Thanksgiving all three ways, and no matter which way, I always found that pie makes things VERY celebratory.
Bourbon Pumpkin Pie
- Pastry dough
- 1 (15-ounces) can pure pumpkin
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 1/2 tablespoons bourbon
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Equipment: a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie plate (6-cup capacity); pie weights or dried beans
- Accompaniment: lightly sweetened whipped cream (add 1 teaspoon bourbon per 1/2 cup cream if desired)
Preparation
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 12-inch round and fit into pie plate. Trim edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
- Fold overhang under and lightly press against rim of pie plate, then crimp decoratively. Lightly prick bottom all over with a fork.
- Chill until firm, at least 30 minutes (or freeze 10 minutes).
Make it
- Preheat oven to 375°F with rack in middle.
- Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights.
- Bake until side is set and edge is golden, about 20 minutes.
- Carefully remove weights and foil and bake shell until golden all over, 10 to 15 minutes more. Cool completely.
- Whisk together remaining ingredients and pour into cooled shell.
- Bake until edge of filling is set but center trembles slightly, about 45 minutes (filling will continue to set as it cools). Cool completely.
Cooks' note: Pie can be baked 1 day ahead and chilled. Bring to room temperature before serving.

YUM!
Happy Thanksgiving Lori! What a pie! Sounds delicious, trouble is I love dinner so much I never seem to have room for dessert until the next day! I have made apple and sweet potato pies for those who can fit it!
MMMMMMMMMM. I like your idea of pie!
Have a wonderfully blessed day!
I am not a Black Friday shopper, I am not a shopper any day I just go get what I need and get out smiles. However my daughter and I went to a bead market last week and I spent all my money.
I love your blog.
Be Blessed
