Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously, what is wrong with people??

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What do we think about pie crust? Mixed fat, all butter, all crisco, lard, what?

I like a mix of butter and shortening, but I'm pending final judgment until I've tried CI's vodka crust.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Mixed fat, all butter, all crisco, lard, what?

All butter, mostly because I'm too lazy to keep more than one around the house.

Pioneer Woman touts an all Crisco version which I use and it is AMAZING.

It's supposed to be that crisco is flaky and butter is tender, right? I don't know, I guess I'll stick to the half-and-half to hedge my bets.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

A very buffista stocking stuffer.

Of course that makes sense! But how is it that my mother insists that my grandmother's crust is the flakiest, and yet she uses butter flavor Crisco? It's a mystery.
