Dave Smith with an essay about his fridge light. Gary telling us he
did NOT drop a pumpkin pie.

I don't know if I can handle all the excitement in rfc today.

We're having flank steak for dinner. I'll let you know if I drop
it on the way to or from the grill. It's a balmy 4 C here today;
I'm taking advantage of the mild weather to cook outdoors.

Please also let us know if you don't drop it. Good news is also news.

Well, this will make your skirt fly up.

I washed some dishes awhile ago while I was cooking macaroni, beef,
and tomato for supper.

20C here now as the sun is going down. I'm going to close the door soon.
I'm having leftovers so just reheating in the MW.

You washed dishes and cooked at the same time? Impressive, you must be
ambidextrous or something.

I beg your pardon!!! Do not use that language around me. [Sorry, I just
couldn't resist. :o)]

But truthfully, no Sudafed's were harmed.

I cooked a deep dish pumpkin pie last night,
and DIDN'T drop it, either removing it from the oven,
OR serving it up from the fridge for lunch today.

How do you NOT nail it if you just put it in the oven for 50
minutes? Other than not dropping it on the floor.

You nail it by cooking it for 70-75 minutes.
50 minutes will result in a pie shell full of pumpkin soup.

I take it you put it in the oven still frozen. The pumpkin pie recipe
that I use takes more like 50 minutes to cook.

???? 40-50 minutes is more than enough time to cook a pumpkin pie.

Mine too, I used canned pumpkin, milk, cream, sugar, a couple eggs and
spices. The custard sets up and the crust cooks in 40-50 minutes.

This is a frozen pie and yes... Put into a 375 oven while
still frozen and cook for 65-75 minutes.

My homemade pies cook for less time, like you are thinking.

This frozen pie was ok but had a bit of an off-taste,
like the oil used had gone rancid. Won't buy those again.

Might make a sweet potato pie next time soon.
I use the old Betty Crocker recipe then add
50% more spice. I like a spicy pie.

That's a fact, Jack.
Because of my screw up, this $3.99 pie ended up costing me
$7.98. And it wasn't even 'all that'. Had a slight "off"
taste like oil gone bad (used in the crust)
