Nothing like the tradition of a cold morning pie line to kick off your Thanksgiving. We snapped this shot while waiting to pick up a chocolate pecan pie at Bang Bang Pie Shop around 11:30 a.m. this morning. Despite the chilly weather, everyone seemed to be in good spirits. Probably had something to do with the promise of pie.

Seems we picked the perfect time as well. When we left the line was almost double and we heard it was even longer earlier this morning. Thankfully there was coffee and hot cider for sale to keep warm while waiting and we only had to stand outside for around 30 minutes. It's a small price to pay for such delicious pie.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
