HS 088: When Making it From Scratch Isn't Good Enough by Pam Barnhill

Episode description

Somehow over the years I have become the pie cook for our family holiday gatherings.
 
I would like to think it is because I make the best pies. More likely it is because my mom thinks there are always other deserts around if I happen to ruin the pies. If I ruined the cornbread dressing? Well that's another story, isn't it?

What I have come to learn from years of making pies is that scratch is not always better.
