my pies are not quite done yet. they look wonderful on top, but are too giggly to be done.

:-(

I hope I don't ruin them. this is the first time in years I've made a chess pie. and even the last time i made them wasn't very good at it. my mom makes them and they are wonderful.

these are not egg custard pies like most people make. these have cornmeal and vinegar in them. sounds bad, but mixed in with all the pure vinella extract, evaporated milk, sugar, and butter-- wow! they just taste great.

my wife and nephew can smell the sweetness in the air.

good thing the kids are asleep.

i'll let them help me make a pie over the weekend. we're gonna be fat.
