We wish you all a healthy, happy Thanksgiving to you, your families, friends, co-workers, and all the employees in your company!
To add to Amy’s article above, we thought we’d share an apple pie recipe in honor of her metaphor.
While many people use Granny Smith apples, I love to use Red Delicious but might try a Pink Lady the next time I make apple pie. I’ve also heard of some people using Fuji or Golden Delicious. I say, use your favorite apple because they are all great choices.

Heat oven to 425°F. Place 1 pie crust in ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate. Press firmly against side and bottom.
Step 2
