My best friend when I was little was a Higginbotham.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If only Dexter Wimbish and Jimmy Higginbotham were marrying each other.

Bakers! After you use dried beans to blind bake a crust can you still use them for bean stuff?

I don't know that answer, but I do know that Stella Parks on Serious Eats recommends using sugar to blind bake because it caramelizes the sugar for next time you use it and makes it more delicious.

I'm pretty sure this pie is going to come out a "gommel" as my grandmother and her mom would say (a bit of a disaster). We always thought it was an Irish word but I've asked bative Irish speakers (& bakers) and they looked at me like I was nuts.

I think so, lisah, but I'm not sure.
I use pie weights because of course I do. Will have to look into this sugar idea - I'm already on board the dry caramelization bandwagon from the same source

How can I get out of bed when a cat is curled up on my chest? Oh well.

In Good Eats I believe Alton Brown said to dispose of the beans after blind baking. I don't remember why, though.

I don't know if I'm remembering correctly, but I think Mary Berry of Grea6t British Bake Off reuses her blind baking beans for blind baking.

Soak em and cook em and find out, lisah. For science.
Have extracted myself from beneath the cat. Onward to breakfast.
