The pie is cooked. If I had exchanged "The" for "Your" there, it would sound kind of noirish. "Your pie is cooked kid, see? You gotta scram and scram fast!"
The pie is cooked and now the waiting begins. And I question myself. Will it be good? Did I use too much sugar? Not enough? More spices, maybe? Why aren't I a better parent? What's this thing on my nipple? Why do we own so many fucking cats? I've had difficulty with pies in the past.
I'm hopeful for this one. Apple, of course. I was hopeful for the last two as well though, and those ended up pie tragedies. There were angry, jonesing, diabetics picketing the house to ask us how we could do such a thing to pie.
But still I hope because as the Torah says, "Every ThanksGiving is a new chance to eat pie." Except, in Hebrew. Which I would lay on you cats here, but our keyboard doesn't have Hebrew keys. Anti-semetic keyboard.
Happy Thanksgiving bloggy people. Gorge well.

Movember Musings and Tryptophan Dreams
Did everyone who celebrates out there have a good ThanksGiving? Good. Ours went well. I cooked a 13 pound bird for two adults and two toddlers. It's about the spectacle, really.
This will probably be our 2nd to last Movember update. As a reminder, Movember is November Mustaches against prostate cancer, you can donate here at the DadCentric team page, or at my very own Movember page. Thank you.
I really like the Movement the Mustache has shown over the past couple of days. It seems to respond to it's environment quite readily. Perhaps it's becoming sentient? We can only hope.
Without further jibber-jabber, Thanksgiving Stache:
Mustache, you've outdone yourself this time. Pumpkin Pie. Festive and stylish. And let me tell you, sitting here right under my nose, it smells delicious. I mean, really good.
I wonder if . . . no, I shouldn't. But if I can just get my tongue . . . mMmm, Err, oh yeah that's Mmmph, (smack) so good (smack).
Oops. I think I shouldn't have done that.
Yep. It's Pumpkin Hitler. Of course, if his mustache had been anywhere near that delicious, I think we can all agree things would've gone much, much differently.
And yes, those are pie crumbs on my cheek. Sometimes, it pays to have a paper plate for a face.
Have a good weekend folks.
