I bet you think of her every time you have pie. A lovely way to keep her close.

Great memory Doris. Isn't it amazing though that no matter how hard we try it never tastes the same as when Mom made it?

Mom's is always special and the way to go!

Mom's baking/cooking had something special in it ALWAYS but you can not copy it right even w/ the recipe

All I have to say is.....

Mom's cooking is always the best!
