Happy National Pecan Pie Day!

Happy National Pecan Pie Day! I don’t know who makes up these “holidays”, but they’re fun to celebrate, especially when you can make this Toffee Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie recipe that my Aunt Robin made for Thanksgiving a few years ago. The pie is to die for, so get to your kitchen and start baking!

As you all can probably figure, I’m from Texas, and sometimes people say us Texans talk funny. So, I want to ask you…which nut pronunciation do you use for “pecan”?  Is it National Peh-Kahn, Pih-Can, Pee-Can or Pee-Kahn Day? 

I say peh-kahn, but my extremely Southern, East Texas, country and twangy mother-in-law (Paula) would probably say pee-can!!  (Oops, I was wrong…I just talked to Paula and she pronounces it peh-kahn.)

Anyways, I want to hear from you! How do you say “pecan”? Leave a comment in the section below!

P.S. You’ve got to try this Toffee Chocolate Pecan Pie!
