It was my pleasure!
Smartphone playing episode 44 of the Joy of Cooking Podcast. Headphones are nearby.
a VERY toasty lemon meringue pie. We got a little enthusiastic with the blowtorch.
Italian meringue on the tines of a stand mixer's whisk attachment. There's one tendril-like peak.

Big thanks to @katemcdermott.bsky.social for joining us on the pod last week! She recounts her pie whisperer origin story, we talk about geoduck pie (her fam's favorite), why you should be listening for the "sizzle-whump," and how to get the tallest and fluffiest meringue.

That would be everyday for me!
Yes, they most certainly do!
Will do, Matthew!
My DIL loves ginger so your recipe is now at the top of my list to make for Thanksgiving.
And it thrills me to see Art of the Pie and Pie Camp on your shelves!
Reposting this King Midas ‘Toon today. Hmmm…Orange hair and gold coins, too. Anyone come to mind?

Join @lifesafeast.bsky.social and me for a meetup and look in to our kitchens. It's going to be fun!
Next time!
If you are heading out Port Angeles way let me know!
From yesterday’s walk in Port Angeles.
I'm looking forward to this! It's going to be soooo much fun!
This is going to be soooo much fun, Jamie!
Oh, if you were a bit closer I'd give you more. I'm harvesting 150-175 pounds of quince from my tree this year!
Perhaps like this?

I lost subscribers after publishing today’s newsletter. And you know what? It doesn’t matter. What is important is to continue to stand strong for the country I love with liberty and justice for all. 👇

I am so sorry for your loss, Pippi.
Stand strong. #paperclip #paperclipresistance
STAND UP STRONG
We keep strong boundaries when we stand up strong. I think you will find it rather amusing how harp strings and drapery shears fit that bill and add a little levity to your day, too.

Oh those look very good!
