Since my marriages have always been to those that have no Christmas cooking traditions, it has fallen on me. Last night I got the apple pies off the list. I have a very nice late and tart old homestead apple called a "Brock" (mebbe Brach)? that makes great pies... OK lets see what y'all are cooking up for Christmas. My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Don't know about that..but the first marriage didn't take. (I was the only one trying I guess). Second one looks like its a GO to the finish line! My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Pie crust is 2 cups all purpose flour, 1 tea. salt, 2/3 cup crisco and enough cold milk needed to form a ball. Cool pie dough for at least an hour before rolling it out. Bake at 425 for 30 minutes then reduce heat to 375 for another 25-30 until bubbling out of slits Dot apples with a tablespoon of butter before putting top crust on. My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Next up was chocolate covered peanut butter balls and mint cookies. Today I boiled shrimp, baked 2 pecan pies and made a big batch of hot chex mix. Tomorrow I'll cook up some green beans with bacon & onion for our little family dinner with my son and daughter in law Christmas day. Christmas day I'll make a sweet potato casserole and bake a small ham and heat up some rolls. My wife has had health problems this year and I've been a one man band doing all the cooking this year. I'm just grateful that I'm able to do it, I am blessed.
