Classic Summer
June 9, 2025
No Summer backyard gathering would be complete without the requisite stack of white paper plates. A modern classic, the plain white paper plate has served up it’s share of burgers, potato salad, watermelon and pie. But it might be time for an upgrade, something studier and more dependable. These matte finish porcelain plates are just the ticket, possessing all of the original charm but with additional strength. No chance of that burger ending up in your lap now. And, no trees were harmed in their production.

“You like pie?”
September 27, 2013
“I like pie”. * Who’s going to argue with the President on this point? Pie is good…simple as that. And, what better way to usher in Fall than with an apple pie… in this case, Sour Cream Apple Pie.
I adapted the recipe found here:http://rosylittlethings.typepad.com/posie_gets_cozy/2008/10/sour-cream-appl.html using a mix of Granny Smith and Gala Apples. This pie was even better on the second day at room temperature.
