Houser's Blue Ribbon Pumpkin Pie Grange Fair Winner image

From CDT Wens 30th 2000 M Houser age 9, Blue Ribbon Pie winning recipe on his first try at entering the fair's pie category. " We never expected this." said his Mother, who taught M to bake when he was old enough to stand on a chair. He doesn't have to look at a recipe and "he cracks his eggs one handed." Pretty good for a 4th grader. Why no other spices? Well M doesn't like nutmeg or allspice.
