I think that’s it. It was a LOT of food! My fridge is way full, even after leftovers went home with guests. The vegan food mostly came out good this year. The dressing needed a little more liquid this time, the pecan pie was ok but not stellar, and the vegan pumpkin pie was a horrifying gelatinous mess that I refused to actually let the guests taste and then threw away. But, I don’t think anyone went home hungry. The big winner in the desert category was brownies made from this recipe. I did not make any substitutions, but didn’t add the optional chocolate chips or nuts. They were quite moist, but not overly heavy. At least one small guest had three, so I knew they were a keeper!
Hope you all had a lovely day. If anyone wants a specific recipe, let me know!
