A TIME
for THANKS
We'd like to share our gratitude, along with some recipes that have brought us comfort and joy over the years
Jane Clark, J.D.
I am grateful for our team who has supported and cared for one another personally and professionally through this pandemic.
I searched for this recipe for over 20 years. It was a favorite dessert at a restaurant in my college town. I finally found a recipe and it quickly became my kids’ favorite dessert. When I added it to the Thanksgiving pie menu, it eclipsed all others. Double the recipe and make 2 pies because this goes fast!
Mom's recipe went for more than $50 at auction!
Tricia Perkins
I am grateful for a fun and smart team that works hard, supports each other, and can laugh and cry together. I also appreciate the autonomy and flexibility I am given to help balance personal responsibilities, goals, and well being.
Leann Ploessl
I am grateful for a boss/friend/leader who cares and understands each and every one of our personal and professional needs without question.
This has been a dish at every holiday on my mom’s side and has continued within our family as well.
My mom made this coffee cake for our large Brennan family growing up (so we each got a small sliver), and now it has become part of our Conroy family tradition. My girls always confirm the night before a holiday, “You are making your coffee cake for the morning, right?”
Sheila Conroy
I’m grateful for a team who helps me learn and step outside my legal bubble every day! Each of you has taught me so much about creating happier, more humane, and more productive workplaces in our communities!
Hannah Renfro
I am grateful for the privilege to work with amazing clients engaged in important work in communities across the country, and inspiring colleagues who live their values and have brought me so much joy.
Warning: This only makes one pie. I highly recommend making two so you can have pie for dessert, a midnight snack, and breakfast.
Growing up, my Mom and I would make these batches of these bars for my Dad and two brothers each year as they set out to go deer hunting. It was a fun and easy recipe for the younger me to make, knowing the bars would most likely be eaten and gone by the time they made their way to the mystical place we called “Up North”.
Jenn Lindberg
I am grateful beyond measure for the work I get to do each day, the clients I get to serve that motivate and inspire me, and the wonderful, talented and fun Lake Effect team that I am proud to call friends as well as co-workers.
Peggy Angevine
I count myself lucky to work with this group of incredibly talented women. Each person brings her own unique experience, perspectives, and strengths to this team. In my Lake Effect role, I’ve had the opportunity to develop new skills that I never would have before; every day is a learning experience!
This recipe is more about technique than anything else. Once I started brining and cooking my turkey upside down - I never went back. This
produces the most moist turkey you’ll ever have.
