Buttermilk Pie

First, I would like to thank everyone for the wonderful compliments on this pie. The recipe was given to me by a dear friend a loooooong time ago. It is a simple recipe to make, and apparently, ahem… a forgiving recipe. Even with the help of a 2 year old!
We will just pretend, with all that help… that I didn’t originally forget to add the sugar… wonder why the filling didn’t fill two pie shells… put the pies in the oven… only to realize about three minutes into the cooking time what I had done… pull the pies out… spill filling all over the inside of the door and in the bottom of my oven… pour the filling back in the bowl… add the sugar… wash the cookie sheet… refill the pie shells… and back into the oven, to end up with some very pretty and tasty pies…. see, a very forgiving recipe! And, you totally don’t have to go thru all of that. In fact, it's much easier if you remember all of the ingredients the first time :o)

Ingredients:
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 stick butter, melted
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 regular pie crust

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix ingredients together. Pour in pie shell and bake 40 minutes. Let cool completely before serving.

Italian Feast Part 1 - Spaghetti alla Carbonara

Ok, so I can't just make Cannoli, nope... gotta have something to go with it and since I was making Cannoli... I decided to do a whole Italian Feast!

Spaghetti alla Carbonara Recipe courtesy Nigella Lawson Ingredients: 1 pound spaghetti 2 cups cubed pancetta rind removed (I used bacon) 2 teaspoons olive oil 1/4 cup dry white wine or vermouth 4 eggs 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan 1/4 cup heavy cream Freshly ground black pepper Freshly ground nutmeg Directions Put a large pan of water on to boil for the pasta. In another large pan that will fit the pasta later, cook the pancetta cubes in the oil until crispy but not crunchy. Pour over the white wine or vermouth and let it bubble away so that, after a few minutes, you have a small amount of salty winey syrup left. Take the pan off the heat. In a bowl, beat together the eggs, Parmesan, cream, and pepper. Cook the pasta accor
