Pie crust is a minion of Satan. Every time I make it, following the recipe to the 1/10th of a gram (I have a triple-beam balance for my soap making), it comes out different. Sometimes perfect, sometimes... not...

The “not” is usually on some big holiday, like Christmas.

At least my soap always comes out the same. We haven’t bought soap since 1999.

You’re probably too perfectionistic to use Peg Bracken’s recipe. The ruling philosophy throughout my personal life has been, “A half-***** job is better than no job at all.” Perfection takes too long.

“Pie crust is a minion of Satan.”

Some of the best fortifications of WW2 were made from Mrs Miggen’s pie crusts.

“We haven’t bought soap since 1999.”

What mixture are you using,Tol? Just curious.
