Had a German fail. Invited a friend and his son over for Xmas dinner. They have theirs on thec25th. Oops. So we did a Greek meatball dish.

Today asked another friend over and had turkey with stuffing/dressing, potatoes and flat beans in a tomato sauce.,

Then for dessert I made a pecan pie .
Found a recipe that didn't call for blind baking the crust. Put your crust in the pan and freeze it. Fill it frozen when ready to bake. The crust was not soggy at all. I may try this with pumpkin pies.
