No, No! -- It's (Texas) Pecan Pie Day!

Well, actually I do make better pecan pies than pineapple ones, being from Texas and all. :)

[Diver Dave]

Do you take special requests? Anything but mincemeat. :)

[Billie]

WOW!! I've never had pecan pie....sounds deeelish!

But I'll have Billie's pineapple pie first, it's my fave. Besides, she'd get mad if I didn't. : )

Well, shoot! Just pretend #60 is holding a Pecan Pie then, instead of pineapple. LOL

:) Mz B's Pie Shop takes requests. She does NOT make mincemeat though. :) How about cherry? :)

[JustAmy]

Thank you!!!

FReeRepublic's greatist graphic artists contribute to Amy's Place!! I love it!!!

Thanks, Guys. ((( *** hugs and smooches *** )))

[Diver Dave]

Cherry sounds great. Half a gallon of vanilla ice cream to top it off and I'm a happy man once again.

[JustAmy]

LOL

[Billie]

DEFINITELY has to have ice cream on top! ANY kind of fruit pie or cobbler has to have ice cream with it. :)

[JustAmy]

I think you mentioned a darling four year old on your profile; if she comes with you ...... Of Course. I should have grandchildren! :(

[JustAmy]

I was pinged to that chicken thread not very long ago. That is funny. I told him to clean the house and he straightened the sofa cushions. LOL

[JustAmy]

Oh No .... we need new watch dogs?



Maybe these will growl louder. : )

[JustAmy]

"No! "

Mom said for us to clean up that s dog stuff. I'm going to try your tactic and just say "No!" this time.

I may have to run away with Spike. : ( I'll bet you're gonna miss me.)

This looks like something MamaBear should bring to the next Support Our Troops Rally. Let's tell Chadsworth the rally starts at 6:45. : )

Layered Pecan Pie

1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. sugar
1/4 t. salt
1 egg
1 t. vanilla
1 unbaked 9" pastry shell
1 1/4 c. chopped pecans
3 eggs
1 c. light corn syrup
1/4 c. sugar
1 t. vanilla

Combine first 3 ingredients; beat until smooth. Add 1 egg and 1 t. vanilla, beating until combined; spoon into pastry shell. Sprinkle with pecans. Set aside.

Combine 3 eggs, corn syrup, 1/4 c. sugar, and 1 t. vanilla; beat well and pour over pecans.

Bake at 375 F for 35 to 40 minutes or until set.


Happy Texas Pecan Pie Day, everyone.

[JustAmy]

You're welcome, Hookman.

Hope you had a great one.

This looks like something MamaBear should bring to the next Support Our Troops Rally.

LOL. You think so? I might just do that. But I don't think Chadsworth would want any, it's not chocolate. ;-)

Actually, that recipe sounds pretty good. I think I will add it to my recipe book.

[ST.LOUIE1]

That cat looks like it would make a good speed-bump.

LOL! I love that cat, wish she'd jump 'you know who'. : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

How about this one then? :)

Yes!!!!! AhhhhRoooo!!!! : )

Looks just like 'you'. : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

Well, shoot! Just pretend #60 is holding a Pecan Pie then, instead of pineapple. LOL

[ST.LOUIE1]

Maybe these will growl louder. : )

LOL! Billie would, for sure. : )

[JustAmy]

Is Tragic still here?
Maybe I should stay out of sight for awhile.
