I was invited to teach the girls (Beehives) pie baking. We made sour cream lemon and cherry.

Best parts?

That it was my daughter's idea to invite me to teach.

That the reason she chose sour cream lemon wasn't because it is her favorite, but because she knows it is one of her leader's favorites.

That this is the second time I've taught pie baking to this group of girls (they used to be in my Activity Days group). I'm hopeful that someday at least one of them might carry on the tradition--the art--of baking pies from scratch.

That one of the leaders--a genuine and generous young wife and mom--just raved and raved. I know she'll go home and try this. She was so appreciative--it was really sweet.

Oh, and ending my day with a slice of sour cream lemon pie doesn't stink, either.

Life is good.
