About this Cook
Have enjoyed cooking almost as long as I can remember starting with my grandmother teaching me how to stuff a turkey and bake biscuits at 12.
My favorite things to cook
breads, roasts, doughnuts, pies, soups
My cooking triumphs
Creme Brulee
My cooking tragedies
Making rolls with sugar substitute once, I was about 15 and didn't realize the yeast needed the sugar to make the CO2!!! It was a pure disaster!!!

Blackberry Pie I
A very nice pie, I used fresh blackberries picked today, but increased it to 5 cups and added about 1/2 cup of raspberries that I happened to have on hand. I used a family recipe for the crust called "no fail crust" and it worked beautifully!!! The only thing I would change is to decrease the amount of sugar sprinkled on the top crust, 1/8 of a cup would have been plenty!!! I did have to bake it longer than the recipe stipulated, about 60 minutes total, until the crust was nicely browned. Thanks, this was a keeper!!!
