I know a very special woman named Effie who is 96 and bakes pies several times a week. Effie lives in North Carolina and her church recently dedicated their cookbook to her. Effie has been an active member of her church for over 65 years and in 1945 held the founding meeting of the church's women's group at her home--how cool is that? I was one of the fortunate recipients to receive a copy of this special cookbook, signed by Effie, which includes some of her recipes. I will be posting some of Effie's recipes along with some great cooking tips from the cookbook in upcoming posts...so stay tuned.
