Let Them Eat Pie

A Thanksgiving season without a pumpkin pie was not something that Becky wanted to experience. So a special stop at a foreign food store in Kobe for some canned pumpkin (our only option), and a little help from some friends, and pumpkin pie in Japan became a reality.

Our friend Philip was in charge of making the crust, and Becky was in charge of the filling and whipped cream. I was documenting the event, and Kelly joined us in the end for a little moral support. We had to improvise a little and use two little udon noodle tins as pie tins, and we baked the pie in our tiny Japanese oven/toaster/microwave oven.

All in all it turned out pretty good, and the end result was pumpkin pie!
