Even if I go out for the meal or travel or spend it at someone else's home, if there is no mince pie, I will buy one for myself (even if it does give me indigestion). Besides loving it, it reminds me of my mother. She always made mincemeat pie at the holidays even though she and I were the only ones in the family who liked it.<br /><br />Happy Holidays - and Happy Birtday to your son!Sue Ann Jaffarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09984054116933714621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-53319197888862490132009-11-26T17:52:33.516-05:002009-11-26T17:52:33.516-05:00Lisa, thanks for all the information on Thanksgivi...Lisa, thanks for all the information on Thanksgiving!
