directions
- A pie you say?
- Tis easy this way.
- First take 3 eggs and separated and to the whites add 1 teaspoon of cream of tartar.
- Then beat the poor things until you're ready to scream.
- To atone for the beating add 3 tablespoons of sugar.
- to quietly take first prize, beat the same length of time as before.
- Then let the whites rest and return to the yolks which have patiently waited.
- Combine a can of sweetened condensed milk.
- Then add the juice of the three lemons.
- Quite sour you know, but that makes the magic.
- For low and behold, a custard results from mixing it all together.
- The pie crust, you crush one box of vanilla wafers and place on a greased pie pan to make a lucious mouthful.
- Pour the custard and add a crown of stiff egg whites.
- Pop it into the oven and brown it.

I was raised in Bayou country. Liked to watch my uncle wrestle aligators. I am pure Cooney ( to some of you that means coon ass. Also loved to pole the pireau down the bayou. At one time my uncle tied his brother to a tree in the swamp and left him there. they got him out before the water got to his chest. Sinful uncle.
