When I got home this afternoon it was baking time! I started with banana chocolate chip bread for Friday's breakfast. I used Kath's recipe, added a little bit of brown sugar, left out the walnuts and added a bit more chocolate chips:
Next up, I made Pumpkin bread with pecans. I used a recipe from For the Love of Cooking and added pecans instead of walnuts.
Lastly, I made an Apple and Pear Streusel Pie from Food network.
For dinner tonight I wanted to make something simple/easy! I made these pineapple/chicken won tons that I picked up from Whole Foods. I boiled them up and served them with mixed vegis and pineapple in stir fry sauce.
The won tons didn't have a strong pineapple flavor but they were yummy!
I have one more dish to make for thanksgiving, a spinach and cheese side dish. I will post pictures tomorrow. Have you started cooking yet??

I'd like some of the apple and pear pie, please. I made a pecan pie last night before I held up to my mom and dad's and freaked out because I thought I burned it! Ben did a taste test and declared it, mighty fine, leaving a cute little spoon sized hole in the middle!
