Not a pie, but I did try a new recipe. Candied Watermelon Rind, and I used Cherry gelatin for color – didn’t realize the flavor would transfer but that’s fine. I like them – it’s like homemade (therefore *better*) gummy worms that don’t stick to my teeth as much.

I’ll make the recipe again, but not till we get a new dehydrator – I need the solid sheets for the recipe, and mine is so old I can’t get more. Wax paper didn’t work well as a substitute.

This is the first pie I ever made for my husband, over 10 years ago. I saw it in a cookbook and had all the ingredients on hand, that’s why I tried it!

It’s good – if you store it in the fridge, though, the butterscotch will “weep” through the meringue. Not so pretty but EVEN TASTIER!

Heather, I love butterscotch, but in a “little goes a long way” sort of way, if you know what I mean! I may need to try this, or something like it, perhaps on the next “family fun” holiday we’re pressed into . . . and you’re right – scorched sugar is no fun at all!

Nothing fearless from me this week, I fear – I’ve been out of town and barely seen the kitchen! But I’m looking forward to seeing what others are doing.
