Pretty good. I am still waiting for my Jan and Feb quilts though. I'm trying to get a couple of my own done for some shows coming up in the Spring....so far so good, I guess. I have one on my machine and one ready to be quilted. But I also have other committments.....I'm on a committee planning a quilt show in July....so will be pretty busy with that for awhile....so I'll probably keep a pretty low profile here until after the show. Drat, I have 2 dogs on my lap and keep having to make corrections here....hope things are going well for you. Ellen

Never Fail Pie Crust

yield: (1) pie crust

2 c. flour (all-purpose)
1 c. shortening (butter-flavored by Crisco)
1/2 Tb. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. ice water (always use the coldest water as this is what helps the flakiness)
1 egg
1/2 Tb. white vinegar

1) In bowl, mix flour, shortening, sugar and salt
2) Add ice water, vinegar and egg; beat to combine and pat into pie pan

That's all there is to it! Enjoy!! :D :D
what is the temp and time you cook this pie crust on?

You bake according to the recipe of your filling (the ones that call for one unbaked pie crust). Normally, 350 deg. is a good avg. time to bake pies and 8-10 min. according to type of oven used if you just want a baked crust.

Your welcome, and yes on a chicken pot pie recipe you definitely want a baked crust so it doesn't get soggy. Hope your crust turns out great! This dough has great stretchability which I like so you can make it thick or thin!

:-D

I think this is the recipe. I had remembered seeing it before. Only it's called Italian Rice Pie and it's served at Easter in Italy. Is this the one?

Italian Rice Pie

9 eggs
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 pounds ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup cooked white rice
1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
Directions

Beat eggs in very large bowl. Add sugar, mixing well. Stir in cheese and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add heavy cream and stir. Fold in cooked rice and crushed pineapple.
Pour into a 9 x 13 inch buttered pan.
Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for one hour. Check by inserting clean knife into center. If the pie is done, knife will come out clean. Top should be golden brown. Refrigerate until thoroughly cooled.

Hope it works for you. 8-)
