My Thanksgiving-week cooking is not off to an auspicious start. I decided to bake the pecan pie first. As I began doing so, I discovered that my brown sugar was caked and rock-hard, and my molasses was crystallized. I checked the 'net and found ways of dealing with these, but they were time-consuming. Eventually, I got everything together and into the oven. What emerged looks a little darker than I expected... It's in the fridge now, at any rate.

Checking the details of the pilaf, I found that I don't have enough butter. It's pretty cold out today, so I decided to forego cooking the pilaf until tomorrow; in the morning I'll run out and get more butter (and a couple of other items that have run out).

:sigh: It will get done, and it will taste good. I have spoken!
