Well I told you about picking up pecans and cleaning them so now I want to share with you my Mom's Pecan Pie. Mom has always been a great cook and her Pecan Pie is about as good as it gets. I will say that Elaine Davis, my sister in law, is pretty dang good at pecan pie making. She adds a little Cherokee flavoring to it.
So here it is:
4 tablespoons melted butter (the real thing)
3 eggs - not those cheap little things but big ones
1 cup white syrup (Karo is what I like)
1 cup white sugar (Cains was what we always had)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 and 1/4 cups pecans (Mom likes her chopped)
some folks like them whole
Beat eggs slightly ( do I need to explain)
add rest of ingredients- mix well
Stir in pecans
Bake 375 degrees 40 to 50 minutes
It may kill you but you will die happy.
What did you learn from the Osage?

What did you learn from the Osage?
- Thanksgiving and Christmas are made for Pecan Pie
- Work brings great rewards (pick pecans and get PIE)
- Has anyone asked you what's a PIEWAY?
- about a pound or two
Thanks for listening,
Merry Christmas and bologna on that political correctness CRAP
