The pumpkin pie is done!

The crust is 1/2 lard and 1/2 butter and the filling is made with sour cream, and a little bourbon.

Walking to a #nokings protest today in Burlington VT and I ran across this plaque in a park next to Lake Champlain.

Thank you to all the journalists who are watching tonight so I don’t have to.
