Thai King and Supreme Court of Thailand doesn't recognize your claim Drew. 

 

Weird, cause I was greeted at home by Mile and Apo.

I assume that the egg is used as a binding ingredient, to help the filling "set". Older recipes probably would have called for a small amount of flour or cornstarch. 

Oh, I'm sure that's the reason. Her recipe calls for more liquid in the filling than ours, so it will be comparatively looser. The recipes we have just use, molasses, water and baking soda. The dry ingredients also absorb some moisture during baking helping the filling set.

There is a similiar pie, Montgomery pie, that uses an egg in the filling. Montgomery pie adds lemon to the filling and has a more cake like topping. It's not as widely available as Shoo fly pie? Perhaps, because the ingredients were historically less readily available, particularly in frugal Plain households.

If @dughlas can hoard gingers and plaid lads, I can hoard kpop idols.

I do not hoard them. I share my eye candy, permitting them free range to wander as they will. Just DO NOT get handsy with them, that's simply rude and disrespects their personal space. Nor do I brand or visibly mark them as some might. The tracking chip implants are small and innocuous things. I have never made an attempt to claim one of your kpop boys, they are undoubtedly pretty to look at but are not mine.

He'll have to learn Spanish first!

He needs to speak Spanish to talk to the kpop boys?

Oh sweetie, bless your heart... I've been listening to kpop for five years, I have such a head start on you, that you don't even qualify as competition!

The Texas Supreme Court has jurisdiction over the planet the God-and-Emperor lives on.

Is that the same planet occied by the Little Prince? Are you the dancing man?

The God-and-Emperor doesn't beg.

Whines, stomps his feet, throws tantrums but he does not beg ... often.

Hi Clo!  Is the weather getting better there?  When are you planning to start gardening again?

We had a little bit of rain today. Just enough to stick all of the Cape Lilac leftover bits to my car 

I love the cockatoos but OMG they make a mess

Bet it's all @Bucket1 fault for keeping the nice weather all to himself once again

Rained today - nuisance rain only  

But high 20s low 30s for the next 7 days. Hopefully I will get to the coast tomorrow to enjoy the views

Howdy y'all!

I'm thinking of writing a blog post about my trip overall. Would y'all be interested in reading something like that?

Oh, I did take more pictures during the return trip, but I'll have to go through them to determine which go on IG.
