My oldest daughter baked her first pumpkin pie with a home grown garden pumpkin from scratch when she was 8 years old. She insisted to do it all by herself. It turned out very well and she was beaming with pride! 😍
That's so sweet. I'm not really a baker I prefer cooking but the oldest daughter is an amazing baker.

it will likely not spoil in proper storage.

if you can find someone local who would be able to use it then that saves postage.

My oldest daughter got the keys to her new house on the 7th of December and we celebrated Christmas at her house. I'm super proud of her but her boyfriend needs to get kicked to the curb. I wonder if the city dump would take him for her 🤔

AKRoberts,

I have been wondering how you have been weathering the storms there in California.

Certainly, it would not be a good time to be on the Donner Pass ... in a wagon train or otherwise.

@Dahlia ,

My great grandmother's uncle used up much of the family's adventurous energy :D.

Caleb Greenwood was reported to have been ordered to stay at a base camp while the rescue party continued on to the Donner wagon train rescue. The leader decided he was too old to risk the adventure.

I've just been getting rain and wind. The mountain areas North of us are fairly clear. Donner pass is almost always shut down or at least people are stuck putting on chains. I tell everyone that I might not have been born in California but I was raised here and we don't know nuttin about that white stuff and if it gets here I am all good with staying home. LOL 😂
