Hello folks! We seem to be missing a diary today. Hopefully Pam from California is ok and just forgot or something went sideways.



So here’s a quick open thread to stand in for today!





As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we

can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!

IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.



Post your favorite Thanksgiving recipe or tradition.

We’re trying a new pumpkin pie recipe from Splenda this year. It looks to be easier than the one we tried last year, because you don’t have to make your own sweetened (without sugar) condensed milk to make it. We also have heavy cream and Bit will make whipping cream for us with that.



Ingredients

1 refrigerated pie crust, softened according to package directions

1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin (not pie filling)

1 cup Splenda® Granulated Sweetener

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoons ground ginger

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

¾ cup half-and-half

3 large eggs, lightly beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Fit pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate according to package directions; fold edges under and crimp.

Line the pie crust with parchment or aluminum foil. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges just start to brown, 10–12 minutes. Remove the weights and foil, and bake for 5 minutes more. Remove from the oven.

In a large bowl, stir together pumpkin, Splenda Sweetener, cinnamon, ginger, salt, cloves, nutmeg, and half-and-half. Add eggs and vanilla extract, stirring until blended. Pour filling into pie crust.

Bake for 50–60 minutes or until set in the center. Cool completely on a wire rack.
