Old-Fashioned Cream Pie

December 20, 2013 by Lisa Park + 1 Comment

cream pie

I made this Old-Fashioned Cream Pie, along with an Apple Pie, to take to my family Christmas dinner. It tasted great, and the kids ate it up. You could also turn this cream pie into a banana cream pie or berry cream pie by just adding bananas or berries to the top.

I re-did the spice cupboard in my kitchen and put I re-did the spice cupboard in my kitchen and put in new spice racks, and I love it! The cupboard is now clean, organized, and more functional. I labeled the spice containers so that when I pull out the spice rack, I can actually see and find the spices more quickly that I need for my meals.

Before these spice racks, the cupboard was disorganized. I would reach to the back and grab a random bottle to see if it was what I needed and then put it back if it wasn't, and then try that again until I found the spice I needed. Now, I don't have to deal with that anymore, and I can easily find what I need.
