happy, happy
My sister is visiting, and that makes me VERY happy. And so does this pie....
It's chillin' in the fridge right now, but I can already tell how wonderful it's going to be. Thanks so much Jane's Apron (Julie), for this amazingly simple, my-new-favorite-pie, recipe. The only thing I added was a smidge of lemon zest. Because I'm a lemon freak, and I try to use my fancy new micro plane whenever I can find the chance.
So, whenever my siter is here we HAVE to go thrifting. It's just a rule. We only went to 2 stores, but oh my lordy did we find some goodies!
I officially own the largest supply of pink, red and black gingham now. And I can't WAIT to make some limited-edition strawberries to go in those old school berry baskets. Those gold pine cone earrings are my new favorite possession. And the raspberry syrup? I see some Italian sodas in the very near future......
love that cuckoo clock card! looks like you two are off to a fun start!
