It was my task to make the pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving this year. It is not something I have done on a regular basis. Today was the day to prepare it. I looked up recipes in a couple of books and found that my mom had made notes in her old Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. It warmed my heart. I kept the recipe out and looked at a couple more. In the end, I followed my mom’s recipe with just a bit of tweaking. For whatever reason, I usually combine a couple of recipes to get the flavors I would like. The pie turned out great. I kind of felt like my mom was present, keeping me on the right track and it was good to remember cooking with her.

I Found God today cooking with my mom’s assistance.
