Speaking of…

Pumpkin pie, I love mine. Specifically, I love my pie crust. It’s the 8th grade Home Ec recipe copied and saved for eternity in my little index box. Flour, water, shortening and salt. No sugar. No milk. Nothing too grand, but homemade and perfectly suited to my liking of “crust pliability.”

Now, I could never do a cooking or baking show – well, I could, and it would be rather humorous for viewers looking for actual tips and hints and recipes – but I think I could throw together a good 15-minute pie crust demo. Maybe become a TikTok sensation for the holidays?

Now that I think about it, I’m going to do a “Name that Tune” challenge today. “Make that pie crust” in five minutes or less. I’ll report on Friday, but I’ll start the challenge with ingredients secured in the cupboard, just for that highly anticipated outcome.

Happy prepping, turkey traditionalists and steak-break-the mold peeps.
