Chase that election hangover with some dessert.

The big picture: Mama's Pies Thanksgiving Bake Sale is taking orders through Nov. 20, with proceeds supporting Mama's Kitchen's free meal deliveries.

The impact: Each $35 pie helps provide 10 medically tailored meals, according to the nonprofit. Last year's sale raised more than $190,000 to support deliveries.

The menu: Choose pumpkin, pecan, apple, Dutch apple or a mystery flavor.

Local bakers include Sugar and Scribe, Mielimon Bakery and The Muffin Mam.

The logistics: Order at mamaspies.org and pick up Nov. 25 at one of 10 locations across the county.
