    One day i invited my friend Amy to my house over dinner and she was so suprised to see my mom making home-made pasta and breads from flours. Amy thought pasta and breads are something we buy at grocery stores. I also got invited to amy's house on her b-day and was so surprised to see her mom cooking foie gras. I have never eaten it before ....but it tasted really good. i just noticed that some foods that are common in our family could be surprising to other families and vice versa.

  • Can I make my pie filling today for Thanksgiving?

    Cooking & Recipes - 9 hours ago

    Additional Details

    So my original plan was to make my entire pie today, and hope it stayed fresh for Thanksgiving. But from the response I got from my last question, I have decided to just make my pie filling today, and then finish putting the pie together tomorrow and baking it. do you think this is going to be ok? will my pie filling stay fresh? Sorry, I should have included that it was an Apple pie :-)
