Tis the season for sharing. We have a tradition of making this Pumpkin Pie every year. Its so simple yet delicious, we think the simplicity is what makes is so special! Its really easy to make things complicated when it looks “too easy” or “too simple”
This is something we run into with families. They come in with a crisis of needing to move a loved one right away. In just a few days we have found some great solutions and they are just surprised thinking it was “too easy”. They thought it would be such a burden and stressful to find the right place for mom or dad. We are here to MAKE it as smooth as pie!
Heres to yummy Pumpkin Pie and finding the right solutions!
