As someone who doesn't like pecan pie, this feels like a very fair trade. You're welcome at my Thanksgiving table anytime! 😂

--Whipped cream to pumpkin pie ratio should be *at least* 2:1

--There are not enough good Thanksgiving movies

--And my true hot take: most of the traditional Thanksgiving dishes are actually kind of terrible, yet I insist on making them every single year because the ✨tradition✨ is my favorite part

😲 Take it back! Pumpkin pie is life.
