B is for because. Because of your encouragement, I shall continue to play the game.
Because we have an abund- ance of zucchini, we have been baking Bethany Ann's Not-So-Famous Zucchini Custard Pies. (Bethany is my daughter.) This pie is really just a fun twist on a regular custard pie. Simply add a cup or so of shredded zucchini to the custard mix and sprinkle with either nutmeg or cinnamon before baking. It is a sweet and mild dessert that actually feels like it might be good for you, and my husband likes it! (Don't let it sit around too long unless you know how to keep the crust from sogging up. Truthfully, this shouldn't be a problem unless you live alone, and maybe not even then...) This is a very moist, but most delicious pie.
PS. The ant traps we set out this past week appear to have worked. No more little crawly things in the cat food. Yes!

What a great looking pie crust!

Linda :o)
I strategically cut out the small part of crust that fell over. :)
DeleteEvery once in a while I do get a "perfect" crust though.
Now that sounds really good, just because!! I was in the mood for something sweet, so made the white choc. apricot, walnut scones. They are my favorite and only use 1/3 cup sugar, so I think they are good for me. HaHa.
ReplyDeleteI am in the mood for baking lately. I even tried the new recipe for Jello Cookies.
DeleteHooray - glad you're back! Send pies to Roger Green at...

Leslie, I do have fun playing the game. :)
DeleteYesterday's pie is more than half gone already, and you know, it makes a pretty good breakfast!
Oh can you say a sentence with three "because" continuously?
ReplyDeleteA sentence cannot start with because because because is a conjunction !! :)
