"This is the recipe my mom adapted to my dad's taste, since he loved pumpkin pie and she hates it. My family and I all love it, I make it several times a year, sometimes without a crust and then I eat it for breakfast."

<p>With all four children out on their own, and fivegrandchildren added to the picture, I'm adjusting to cooking for only two. <br />I love to cook, try new recipes and play around with old ones. <br />Working in retail for the last 16 years keeps me busy, but I make time to cook. I love to take dishes to work to share.<img src=http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg alt= /></p>
