My mom baked some pies when I was still sleeping. I will jump in one of the two sugar pies tonight! We have two porches and one small balcony upstairs and we do have one big rocking chair thats sits two people and a table with two chairs but the porches and balcony are not closed and here we have like three months of peace when it comes with flies so sitting outside is mostly not calming (just to illustrate that problem the insects come outside even during winter in the snow and cold so you can all imagine without problems what it looks like during the summers). We may have enough money this year to close at least one porch or the upstairs balcony so we have one place where we can sit all year long outside without being eaten by flies (they also LOVE to buzz around the ears here). I love Winter so being outside during Winter is no problem with me.

Bet those pies are good, Nancy. Pies are my favorite desserts.
A closed in porch would be nice for you and your Mom to relax on. Will you enclose it with screening? How nice that would be any time of the year.

Debbie, how sweet of you to run over here and do all my work for me in the cabin and the porches. You can bake as many pies as you have time for -- we all love pies, especially Granpappy.
Don't wear yourself out now by doing so much, ya hear? Sit down a spell and relax while I make coffee to go with your pies.
Rosie makes awesome pies, too. We like her apple pies warm with vanilla ice cream dripping over the edge -- mmm mmm mm!

The plan is to use screening yes. My mom thought of maybe using another fabric, something in which we could see through but also would keep the flies out. I'd still be scared that a spider would be near (we found a product for that...we spray it on a mop then wipe that mop everywhere outside where our porches are...it works for a few days...less stressful when we go outside...spiders here are HUGE and walk around in the snow). I still haven't eaten that sugar pie but I did eat most of the uncook pie crust.

Hello all! I have that massive berry pie ready and Connie has already had a piece of it. She waited so patiently.
I just came around from the back porch and heard you had chicken and dumplins on, Phyllis. I couldn't help myself but to dig into a nice steamin' bowl of it.
I'm a done cleanin' now. I was bored 'cause nobody else was around so I figured I'd tidy up a lil'.

I have a rice pudding baking in my iron skillet. It's my favorite way to use up leftover rice. Just stir in a few eggs and some sugar, add the milk and vanilla, and pour the whole mess into a big old buttered iron skillet. Sprinkle a few raisins in and some cinnamon on top, then dot the pudding with butter. MMmMMMMMmmmmm! I can hardly wait the hour it will take it to cook.

I bet a bunch of folks would love to dig into that rice pudding with you, Connie. It sure smells good.
I wonder what everyone is up to. There is a lot of pie left, which is surprising at this hour. I just dug out some vanilla ice cream from the freezer to go with it. It is a delightful combination, especially after Phyllis' tasty chicken and dumplings.

I am eating the rest of some pasta with cheese that I made yesterday, cooked some mushrooms in lots of butter before the last period of my Hockey game then threw them into my pasta plate. It's 12:24 now and I cannot go to bed too early since I got up after 13:00 after being in bed close to eleven hours (i did not slept all that time + the day before i did not sleep at all so i should be able to sleep tonight). I'll probably end up spending a few hours on Youtube as usual. I have three The Graham Norton Show to watch plus the small part with Tom Cruise and eight The Daily Show and nine The Colbert Report so I could do that instead. As for pies I still have some left of my sugar pie my mom baked me, I'll probably eat some after I'm done with my pasta. I'd love some ice cream but there's none left.
