My recent guests ate me out of house and home and we will be scraping by this week. Hopefully will get a ride to groceries by the weekend.
How are you, Lucinda? Very quiet lately.

(146,218 posts)REally, really terrible.
I think the dough had frozen and unfrozen a few times, which has happened to me before. It's just one of those things (like ice cream :cry that we just can't have.
Anyway, the seagulls will enjoy it today!

For dessert I made my favorite fruit pie with 4 pts. of blueberries, only one pint cooked with 1/4 C sugar (this time I used a vanilla bean) a packet of unflavored gelatin. Clean the other 3 pts. and put them in a big bowl then pour the cooked berries over them and stir well. Refrigerate for a half hour and go stir them, and continue checking on them and stirring them so they will all be thoroughly coated with the liquid. I check and stir every 20 minutes or so until the berries begin to clump together. Mound the blueberries into a 9" cooked pie crust and chill again for at least 2 hours. Fresh, raw blueberries and the gelatin is practically undetectable in this pie. A little fluff of whipped cream (I use cool whip because of dairy allergies) sets it off nicely. Sometimes, especially on the 4th of July, I garnish each slice with a whole strawberry.
Instead of vanilla, lemon juice can also be used.
