Pie update

So, that was not the right recipe it sort of tasted like a lemon quiche', not quite what I was aiming for!! Definately needed to be more creamy and less eggy.

Lemon Ice box Pie

Everytime I start really missing my Mom (I always miss her), I try to cook something she used to cook, I wish I'd watched her better when she was trying to teach me. Anyway, I have been thinking about her lemon ice box pie for a while now so I decided to try it today. I didn't have the recipe and I knew it had sweetened condensed milk so i did a google search, it doesn't really look like hers but maybe it will taste like it. I kind of cheated by using lemon juice out of the fake lemon instead of juicing my own, so we'll see. A while back I started trying to make chicken n dumplings like she did, now that took quite a while to master but now they are delicious, well Gracie says they give her gas but other than that, they are a real hit. I hope we are making those great memories in the kitchen like my mom made with me. Anyway, if anyone has the correct lemon icebox recipe send it my way. The one I used just has lemon juice, condensed milk and eggs, which seems a little too easy. So, that's what's cooking today......

This is the truth

Becki sent me this, and it is so true so I thought I would post it. Well....., to give a little insight to those who might need it.....


9 WORDS WOMEN USE

(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they believe they are right and you need to shut up.
(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes, if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of "nothing.")
(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when she will punish you for your mistake.
(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says "Thanks a lot" - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "you're welcome" ... that will bring on a "whatever." (Refer to #8)
(8) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying shut up and get lost.
(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to #3.
