I have never been a fan of lemon pie. The tartness was too much for me. And then, my sister, Nancy, brought a recipe from a dear old friend, Gracie. She was so gracious to share the recipe. It only has the juice of one lemon which gives the pie a milder lemon flavor that’s just right. Enjoy!

My daughter, Carrie, called me from college one night at 11:30 pm asking what could she make with buttermilk. I told her “Nothing, throw it away!”, hung up the phone and went back to sleep. Later I asked her what she did with it–she made her favorite pound cake. Enjoy!

Scones were a favorite at Sweets and Eats and were always ordered for breakfast at Stevens Catering. Their success was related to two different steps. First, I added more liquid because a soft dough creates a softer product. This rule holds true for all dough. Also, I grated the butter instead of cutting in. It is faster but has the same result. Just be sure to toss a little flour mixture over the butter several times as it is grated. If not you will have one solid mass of butter that will have to be cut in thus defeating the purpose of grating. I use this technique for biscuits, pie dough and any dough calling for butter. I hope this improves your baking. Enjoy!
Cranberry Orange Scone
Today I made the Cranberry Orange Scones. I forgot how wonderful they are. I was short on having enough cranberries, so I added a few chopped, dried apricots. What a nice addition! I think you could substitute any dried fruit and have a great scone. Light, fluffy, fruity- just what I needed this morning. Hope you try them!
