gurdymonkeyThe Fuyu persimmon pie was quite good, but tended to lose structural integrity when sliced and serving was attempted. The sugar mixture might need thickening with corn starch. Works nicely in a graham cracker crust, possibly swapping brown sugar for cane might be a nice variation. Original recipe is here. http://keyingredient.com/recipes/17783/f
The Pumpkin Maple pie was actually subtler and less sweet than I would have expected, but really lovely. (In fact, I'm probably going to have some for breakfast as I kept the pie with the blackened crust.) I used cream instead of condensed milk and it didn't set up quite as firmly as I think of pumpkin pie, so might try it that way next time. http://www.producepair.com/recipes/pumpk

mamapduck 's with her family and a couple of friends. I'm still kind of boggling over the need to cook and mash ten pounds of potatoes for six guests, but it made Her Boys happy. I called home and got passed around the table to say hi to everyone in Annapolis. (Gotta figure out when I can get home again: the spring, maybe.) Excellent company and a bit too much food.
