excuse me!!! How do u make that perfect crust...hmmmmmm?
I must say, Ms. Love, you must be some kind of wonderwoman to be able to care for your 6 children & cook & bake like that...not only for your family, but other C'mas parties too! I enjoy reading yr blog but it inspires guilt in me that I, who only have 2 kids, can barely manage the basics in the kitchen. Hats off, my dear.
Joanz: In short I would say the rules to good pie are, cold ingr./always shortening/little handling/tiny bit of vinegar with water. (the vinegar was the newer thing I tried)
Suzy: You're so sweet. Glad you enjoy it here but...shush, you mustn't say such things about yourself. THe fact that I have some older girls makes it a lot easier for me in many ways. 2 very young kids could possibily be the hardest stage ever. (It seems though that 4 kids is the ultimate "Crunch" time)
How about 3 ages 4 and under? I am pregnant again. Serious question: am worried on logistics. Seems biologically impossible: ie: 2 hands, 3 kids. ?? What gives? Is it very bad?
Oh...Bless you Suzy! Ah yes, you may only have 2 hands, but thats where your husband comes in. :) Seriously! 3 is crunch time for husbands so you might as well let him know now. ha! I'll B praying for you. Wish I had your email.

I bumped into your blog a while back when my kids and I were looking for a recipe for oatmeal cookies (Re: "Cookie Time: Chewy Oatmeal cookies"), which, by the way, has now become my three boys' all time cookie favorite! Ever since then I've been trying several of your recipes and all I can say is congratulations, from what I've read you seem to be a wonder-woman-type of mom and an excellent cook. Anyway, it's middle one's second birthday in about three weeks and I was wondering if you have an icing recipe you suggest (preferably one you can add coloring to). Any tips or suggestions are welcome.
Angela, thank you for the compliments. I'm no supermom just wading through motherhood one diaper at a time! :) As for frostings. I generally stick to whip cream. Subconciously I'm horrified at the thought of using cups & cups of powdered sugar. Though I love the cream cheese frosting in "Big Bill's carrot cake". Hope to see you around here, Cheers --- AL'
