Blissful days of childhood are as near as a serving of one of Grandmother’s legendary desserts. Just a bite of her most prized recipes opens a floodgate of memories. Tastes awakening the palate are as warm, familiar, and dear as the recollections of afternoons spent in her company.
What a very special issue indeed! The Summer food dessert look so wonderful!
Thanks for the lovely recipes and the great tablescape decorating ideas!

Looks so mouth watering good! My paternal grandma who lived on a farm made the best pies using crust with lard. I loved her perfect meringue so golden on the edges!
Barbara, I love reading that someone else has a mother or grandmother that made pie crust with lard. My mother always made her crust with lard. I use shortening and butter, but I certainly feel lard was spot on. My folks knew Monroe Boston Strauss who was the pie king. He wrote the book Pie Marches On in the forties. I have his cookbook, his rolling pin and his baptismal certificate. He only used lard! Thanks for sharing. I know this was from 2016 and now it’s 2018, but Victoria has been around a long time, except for that year or so when they were gone.
