Some of my best memories of family is when we sit and eat together...
I love eating dessert with loved ones.
Everyone's satisfied from dinner and just enjoying the moment and each other.
Even if it's a pie we made for an afternoon tea with my aunts, it is always special to me!Tried and true, mom's pie crust is strong enough for any filling, yet light, flaky and delicious.
