This Thanksgiving at Smith Crossing, we did a “Home for the
Holidays” pie promotion. Residents and
staff we able to purchase pies to share with their families and friends. Our cooks worked hard, baking about 52 pies,
and raising over $550. Not only were we
able to take in more revenue for the month, but we were also able to spread
holiday joy through our community.

For Thanksgiving we sold homemade pies to our residents and staff here at Hope Village! The customers who ordered the pies were raving about how good they were. We offered an Apple Crisp Pie, Pumpkin Pie, and Pecan Pie which were all homemade. Below is our recipe for Pecan Pie.
Angela Leman | Director | Hope Village
3 eggs
1 cups sugar
½ cup light corn syrup
½ cup dark corn syrup (won’t hurt to use just one or the other as long as it’s 1 cup total)
2 teaspoon vanilla
1 ½ cups pecans
Mix first 5 ingredients together. Fill the bottom of a pre-made or homemade pie shell with the pecans and then pour over the mix and bake in a convection oven at 275 degrees for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let cool before cutting and enjoy!
