***** This is an amazing thing and part of the problem that I have

cooking for my husband's family. A pie " isn't the same " if it is not

on a lard crust. Stuffing " isn't the same " if it doesn't have sausage

in it. The list goes on and on. Megan had to hear me whine about this

last year but last Christmas, my husband's eldest made the pie for

dessert. She had cut-out on top of maple leaves and it looked really

pretty. She wanted me to " taste " one of the cinnamon sugar " cookies "

and shoved one in my mouth while I had my hands full. You can imagine

how upset and disappointed I was when I said to her, " Are these made

with lard. " And she laughed saying that was the only good way to make

stuff like that. I was upset for a long time about her trying

to " trick " me. That's what I have to deal with. Infantile trickery.

Good grief, Stef - That's not trickery, that's assault! :=( How old do you say

this

infant is???

 

Yours in love and sympathy, Pat ;=)

That's just sooo rude. You have my sympathies, Stef. Could you make your own

pies & cookies & (heh heh) *say* that you used lard to see if they can tell the

difference? ((HUGS))

 

My mom just hosted a hospital party where there were some strict vegetarians &

vegans. I gave her some suggestions but not sure what the final menu was. I'll

have to ask.
