Whiteley Creek Homestead

When you are cooking/baking, do you ever wonder where to set your recipe and then can't remember where you set it? Well, here's a simple solution that I ran across in a magazine… maybe Real Simple or Body + Soul, using a clip you've probably already got sitting around. Position a clip on your counter like the yellow one in my photo. Simply slip in a recipe as shown with the orange clip. (As an example of how to use it, I chose my 92 year-old mother's rhubarb pie recipe that she made several times each spring when I was growing up with stalks from our garden. It's written in her own handwriting… priceless.)  

My mother made her oh-so-flaky crusts the old-fashioned way with lard. Today, I spied a Heartland brand ready-made granola crust in the health food section of my local grocery store that appeared worthy of trying. Click on the label's photo so you can read the ingredients. I'll update you on how I end up using it.
