time and HOV with mindless stuff... here are this year's Thanksgiving pies.

The juice that ran around the top notwithstanding, this is one of my least runny berry pies ever - added apple slices in the bottom. You can't taste them but they soak up the extra juice.

Hopefully the next apple pie will not have the empty cavity syndrome - I found out in Cooks Illustrated how to avoid it! We'll see...
