    Had to share this about Vodka. Try putting it in your pie crust mix, instead of water. Makes it nice and flaky and the alcohol burns off in the baking.

    2 cups water
    a few drops of 100% essential oil (I use Lavendar)
    Mis togethter, put in a spray bottle with a fine mist spray nozzle.

    I LOVE Best Press and this is as close as you can get (MUCH less expensive) Happy Pressing!!!

    I tried this recipe and outcome was not quite stiff enough so i added a little extra vodka till I found what I was looking for.

    Oh my gosh, that's all I'd need to do. I'd be going to the big D and I don't mean Dallas! I used his beer mixed with shampoo and water one time on my lawn. I thought he'd have a stroke. Never did that again.

    Does it turn brown when you put an iron to it?
