One thing I did during the Month of December was start a batch of Vanilla Extract. I know it is easy, but you know finding good vanilla beans you can afford isn't.
I found a source, ordered them (they got here fast). Sliced them. Put them in a pint jar (actually two, I gave one to Jen) and poured Smirnoff vodka over them. I must admit I have opened the jar to smell it a couple of times. Within days it smelled and looked right, but I am waiting until the end of January to use them. Hopefully, I won't run out of the store bought before then.

Me, Abby, Mary and Bethany
We are going to pick out a recipe that requires a pie crust.
We each will make the pie crust from scratch, possibly trying more than one recipe for a pie crust.
We will get back to you later as to what our recipe is.
Note: We have checked out many of Julia Child's cookbooks, Joy of Cooking, I have some vintage Betty Crocker cookbooks and some Professional Cooking cookbooks.
