The other day we went shopping at Costco...you know the giant store where all the items come in giant quantities and packages. Hubby dear picked up a huge packet of Pecans and he wanted me to make a Pecan Pie.
And it turned out to be amazingly yummy and if you top it with Ice cream thats even more delicious
