Welcome to Gilly's Place

A few years ago my granddaughters asked me to put together a cookbook of about 20 family favorite recipes and when I did the 20 pages looked rather skimpy so I added more, and more, and more till their binders held 60. Heavily embellished I gave them to the girls at Christmastime. Every Christmas since then I've added 60 more pages to their collections and have reached the 300 mark...and they're looking forward to getting even more. These are not random recipes, they're all tried and true. Anyway, when word got around it seems everybody and their second cousin wanted a cookbook so I began selling them to cover the cost of materials and now I'm passing them on to others as digital freebies, who like me, enjoy family, friends, cooking, and sharing. Print the pages to a standard letter size and save them in any old binder that blends with your kitchen. Please do print them for yourself and gift-giving to family and friends but please do not claim as your own as it wouldn't be fair to the designers I buy from or the wonderful talent that is freely given by bloggers. I'd love to hear from you and if you leave a comment on a post I will reply on the same. Please don't leave anything on the 4shared page, I seldom think to check those.

Homemade Pumpkin Pie

As homemade as it can be with a store-bought crust, haha.  This is basically Libby's Pumpkin Pie and I don't know about you but there's so much to do here around the holidays that one thing I've learned to take full advantage of are those little red boxes with the pre-made pie crusts and the ones in the disposable tin pie plates.  Yeah, yeah, I use both kinds, the shells and the crusts, both from the freezer section.  I do dress them up a little by using NordicWare's Pie Crust Cutters, they ease my guilt of not making a homemade crust.


This one's a png so you can easily slip in your favorite pic, either the whole pie, a picture-perfect piece, or an empty pie pan.  If the whole pie's gone then you know it was a perfect pumpkin pie.

"Pumpkin Hollow", the kit, is available at http://raspberryroaddesigns.net/ - she has a nice little freebie available if you're interested.

Anyway thanks for stopping by, catch ya' later!
