Old Fashion Pecan Pie

Sunday afternoon church basement carry in lunches – do you remember that one lady’s Pecan Pie? Me too! This pie is it!

I am kind of at a loss as to what to say about this pie – because, well, its just that good. I’m kind of speechless.

I have made this pie for at least 20 years and it is a recipe that comes from a recipe that was given to my mother by Pauline Beard, one of the WONDERFUL cooks at the church where I grew up. (See – it really is old fashioned!)  I have taken only a few liberties with the original recipe and it is  – well, its simply delish. It’s easy to make too.

You can make this one with your stand mixer- or you can simply mix it by hand – your choice. I have always mixed by hand – but this morning I used my stand mixer – and that made it even easier.

Have fun and enjoy this one with friends.

Let’s eat ya’ll!

And for my faithful readers – a post blog dessert. This is Seymour. Seymour has been hanging around for about as long as this recipe. I gave Seymour to my mother as a mother’s day gift when I was in college. Some years ago – my mother gave Seymour to me saying, “here you gave me this plant and it has taken over my sun room – I’m giving it back to you”. Seymour was much much smaller when I originally gifted him! Anyway, Seymour shares my office now since the weather has turned cold. I’m ready for warm weather again so that he can go back on the deck!
