Reading the directions from Ginger on making the pie crust...As you all know I'm trying to learn to cook. I mentioned a week or so to Tami that I wanted to try and make some pies. I think over forty years ago Tracie and I tried and that was a blast but the pie never came about lol. We could bounce that dough off the walls but such sweet memories and so much laughter for me with Tracie. So I never tried again but mainly cause its hard to use a rolling pin with just one hand lol. Well, Tami and the kids came over and we made our pies. We had a hard time rolling out the dough and then we remembered we made enough dough for four pies. So we divided it and it was much easier. I think the dough might have been handled to much but I have to keep in mind I'm in pie 101 or maybe minus 101 lol lol. The left over dough I showed them how to make the cinnamon log rolls and they really enjoyed them. Then we had to make the lemon goodies for the pies while the crust was in the oven. Since we had lemon juice left over one of the girls said we could make lemonade. I said sure and they did a great job. But then we were in a pickle cause we needed that juice for the pudding. So we got the lemons again that had been squeezed and tried to get more juice out of them and Tami did. Tami and the girls made the meringue and it probably should have been more fluffy but it tasted great. All in all I had fun with them and now I have some new memories with Tami and the kids and everyone seemed to like the lemon meringue pie. I think I still need help from Ginger and Lindsay and Liisa's Mom and anyone else out there lol lol. Thanks Ginger cause your pie crust is a "never fail one" until I got a hold of it lol lol...
Love to everyone...
