Pie

If you’re too full for pie, you can always have it for breakfast tomorrow. I was raised in a pretty health-conscious household, but the morning after Thanksgiving meant one thing: Breakfast Pie. This was allowed on a series of technicalities. Pumpkin is a vegetable, pecans have protein; apples are good for you. But really, I think my mom just wanted a slice of pie before noon as much as we did. Amiel Stanek
