Buttermilk Pie

Buttermilk Pie

Ok, it's been almost 7 years

since we celebrated my parents

40th wedding anniversary.

boy, time flies

We planned a weekend family

trip to Lake Barkley. We had a blast.

I think we tried

every restaurant in the area.

We found ourselves at the Iron Kettle.

everything is cooked in iron skillets and you serve yourself

I got myself a piece of pie, then

I went back for another!

By the time we left I think my

family ate the whole pie.

It took me a lot of botched pies

before I found a recipe like the one

at the Iron Kettle. Every time I make this pie

I think of our trip to the lake.
