what it is.....

Pumpkin Pie, mmmmm........

I felt so bad about wanting to use up the ingredients (the evaporated milk, pumpkin and crust) before they expired. Plus who bakes at high heat for over an hour during the summer anyway?

Mmmm, my favorite dessert in the whole world! Yes- even more than chocolate.

I detest making pie crust from scratch. I would rather watch grass grow. But I make the filling that way.

What I can't figure out is how sometimes it cracks in the middle and other times it doesn't. *shrug

It was good.

Saturday

Seems as though I have spent most of my time in the kitchen lately- so no stitching. *sigh* I love to eat, and baking is usually fun for me too, but lately it's dinners and cleaning up from them.
Last night was breaded and baked chicken, marinated earlier in the day, with alfredo over whole wheat rotini. It was a fast fix, we went out for game night at a neighbor's. It was great.
Today is a beef stew. Just stew meat, carrots, onion, celery and potato with some seasonings. You'd think it would be a quick fix. Nope. Wash. Cut. Brown. Blah.
I would love to have summer now please. I am so ready for the barbeques, corn-on-the-cob, and salad. Mmmmm.
