This pie was just as delicious as I thought it would be. I snagged a picture of it sliced before it all disappeared. I also snagged a piece of it that I hid in the back of the old farmhouse fridge till I got a chance to eat it. (The recipe is here: Raisin Cream Pie.)
Yesterday was my cousin’s annual “country supper” that they hold at the old farmhouse (where I used to live), this year celebrating the 100th anniversary of their farm.

Their cleaning lady ditched and their kitchen lady ditched due to last minute crises. They had their party stars aligned all wrong this year. Georgia was having the vapors (for REAL, she fainted during the party! don’t worry, she’s okay, I think she just got too hot or something). I pitched in to clean and run the kitchen. Came home and went to bed for 11 hours straight. I should be back to posting as usual this week! Whew. Kids are gone for 8 weeks. I’ve done gone up the holler, people, and you’re not getting me out till August.

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

Your pie looks heavenly. Have a wonderful summer Suzanne. I hope you won’t be too lonely without the young ones underfoot. Just think, no sport practices, no buses to catch, no homework to help with, no girlfriends for dinner, sheesh! What WILL you do? (Ha-ha, I was just being a smartie pants. I know how busy you are with 52 and the animals.) You’ll have to cut down on the amount of food you make, or invite a couple of teenagers to live with you!
