And pecans are the worst! But store-bought pie is nasty. Homemade pie... yummy...
PE detests pecan pie. For the longest time my teeth were incapable of handling the nuts. (yay! they're all fixed this year!) I have never made one, and doubt I ever will.
Crust..
Hmm, try using some of the nuts and grind them finely in a coffee grinder. Mix em up with some melted butter, and bake it till its a nice golden brown. Then let it cool before you put the filling in. I have never tried this with pecans, but it works for almonds.
We have one local grocery that makes everything from scratch right there, and they do make some wonderful cakes and pies...Dad got the punkin pies there.
But homemade pecan pie with allll the calories...that's a wonderful thing.
So much for the diet, for a day or two. Ah well!
Time for another fifteen minute writing stint...except that I can't use my timer since my watch is on the fritz.
