oh...so...sick

As of this post I have been sick 5 of the past 6 days. It started over the weekend with the stomach flu, I was well on Monday, then Tuesday got a head cold. Three days of this and I'm starting to feel better. I love Sprite. Never have I loved Sprite so much as these past 6 days!

On my well day I decided to finally make the pumpkin pie I've been meaning to. Not feeling all the way in the baking mood I remembered I had 1 frozen pie shell. Yay! So I make up the filling, having a great time and realized that the filling makes 2 pies. Well great. I really don't think we can eat 2 pies up (sure we COULD but shouldn't). So I pull out the butter and flour to make the pastry. At this point I decide to make little "tarts". I received a great new (2 actually) muffin pan and cut out little pastry circles and made mini pumpkin pies. Baked at 350 degrees for 35 minutes and they are great! A little dollop of cool whip on top and they are good to go. I'm gonna try these little ones next time with apple pie. They are really perfect to pack up for lunch. Or a late evening dessert when you don't want to go overboard. Yay!

*on an end note: I would like to get photos on here but at this time don't have the camera cord to upload, in the future I hope to remedy this as we are in the market for a new camera at this time.

Until I bake again-
