I remember mowing Granny's (to me, Grandma's) yard and being attacked by those blackberry bushes! I made a peach pie once when I was living in Vermont on a farm. I had no idea what I was doing and substituted almost everything (peanut oil for shortening, yogurt for cream are a few I remember) and the result was literally so abominable the pig refused to eat it.

I’m so glad to have found you through Jillian Hess’s newsletter! I came across your mother’s newsletter and cookbook shortly after or as the newsletter ended. I’ve enjoyed her cookbook all these years and am glad to now have the chance to read both of your writing. Thank you!
