me grandma heddie was a baker extraordinaire... neva measured a thang. when asked how to make a particular pie, cake, etc... it was "oh a pinch o' this, a dash o' that.".
her choc'late and lemon meringue pies, red velvet cake and blackberry cobbler were to die fo'.
the cobbler especially was a summer extravaganza. all the grandkids would go out on a blackberry pickin' expedition early mornin'. and while heddie was bakin' said cobbler, we kids were all takin' turns at the ice cream churn.
great memories...
