PUMPKIN PIE


Yesterday we made 40 pumpkin pies for St. Peter's Soup Kitchen in Detroit. "We" being 30 or so 6th through 8th graders at St. Mary. The kids were all so enthusiastic but I am worried in all the disorganization that some pies have no sugar and others have 3 cups of sugar! They all "looked" great though. The kids who made the pastry did a particularly awesome job. One of the girls taught me how to make a beautiful pinched border. I am sure the "eaters" of our pies will enjoy the effort and love that went into them.
