Osgood Pie
This was Thanksgiving, growing up. It’s my most concrete memory of that holiday. Everything on our table had a twist. Dressing? Yeah…oyster-corn dressing. Cranberry in a can? Nope…cranberry sauce with orange rinds. Pecan pie? Nope…Osgood pie. This pie is the dressed-up, NC-17 version of pecan pie. Not to be confused with Mince Meat pie because…wtf is that.
