Tony tends to be very frank when he doesn't like something (and he's a picky eater, let me tell you), so I'm not sure if I would have gotten off with such a thoughtful response. I suspect us gals are a lot better on the food diplomacy front than many chaps. :)<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-13779622377680783622013-06-29T06:29:03.780-07:002013-06-29T06:29:03.780-07:00Ha!

My...Loved Honey's reaction to the Tuna Bake! <br /><br />My guess on the pie would be that it didnt cook long enough. I make an apple pie and sometimes the filling does this and I have decided its because I tend to become impatient while cooking it and take it up too soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00545023539161418817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-300013627306774372013-06-28T19:51:05.609-07:002013-06-28T19:51:05.609-07:00Oh well... you know at least ONE day had to go wro...Oh well... you know at least ONE day had to go wrong, right?! Sorry about the pie. I am going to guess that you just didn't cook it long enough (I have made a lot of these kind of pies and have had several, CUSTARD versions as a result). I know that 'failure' feeling too. The one where you really want to go and sulk because you KNOW you can do better. Yes, I suffer from 'perfectionist baker' genes too. I am probably my own worst critic too... the kids and DH are OK so long as it tastes good ;)Spinnerettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18335780710513434157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-65609158959274968692013-06-28T14:45:05.025-07:002013-06-28T14:45:05.025-07:00Hmm, with those types of pies it can be very trick...Hmm, with those types of pies it can be very tricky, especially because our definition of thick or slightly thick may be different then the author's definition there of. It could be that the recipe is just off in its measurements but in comparing this recipe to a modern one, everything here is correct so the only thing that I could see that went wrong is that maybe using cream cheese instead would have help get a solid set since that is what some use. Seems like the ones that I've had that turned out right actually used original cream cheese.<br /><br />Or you may not have let it cook long enough after adding the hot mixture to the eggs since that also has to be cooked again until SUPER thick.<br /><br />Totally understand your baking frustrations, I am anal when it comes to anything I cook too....hope this helps for next time if you attempt it again!Mia Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03492584167956794922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-25043046371207890102013-06-28T14:41:24.542-07:002013-06-28T14:41:24.542-07:00Too bad about the pie.

I tried a different recipe and noticed that there was a bit of flour (I think 1/4 cup) to hold the ingredients together. It worked out so much better this time around. The hubby loved it and so did I.Mariela Santillanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05293755332845325555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-18421882857497443802013-06-28T10:04:17.799-07:002013-06-28T10:04:17.799-07:00I do not want to tell you the last time I cleaned ...I do not want to tell you the last time I cleaned my freezer!

I wonder what why that happened, when you followed the recipe to the letter? Hopefully your next meal goes more smoothly... :) xx Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.com
