It was said Grandma Knapp could roll out a perfectly round pie crust that fit perfectly in the pie pan. She didn’t even have to trim it.
When I first heard that tale, I thought that might be a good aspiration. As I pondered that seemingly impossible skill, reality set in. Now why would I want to make a perfectly shaped form fitting pie crust? That would be a grim quandary indeed. How would I be able to make lady fingers?
I usually make extra dough just so I have enough for a big pan of lady fingers. Sometimes I take a picture and send it to the neighbors on the hill. Within two minutes I hear footsteps on the back porch and then the back-door slams shut. What a fun treat! We might even have a cup of hot tea!
Fun thing to do. I remember grams Knapp but nothing specific at the moment but that picture sure fits my memory of her. Thanks again !
