What is Chess pie??? :lookaroun
Click to expand...
I guess it's a southern thing - I had never heard of it before but it's now become a favorite. From Wikipedia:

"
Chess pie is a dessert characteristic of Southern U.S. cuisine. Recipes vary, but are generally similar in that they call for the preparation of a single crust and a filling comprised of eggs, butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Some recipes call for corn syrup; however, this tends to create a gelatinous consistency. The pie is then baked. The resulting pie is very sweet and often consumed with coffee in order to offset this somewhat. The preparation of a pecan pie is essentially similar, with the addition of pecans.
The pie seems to have no relation to the game of chess, which has led to much speculation as to the origin of this term. Some theorize that the name of the pie traces back to its ancestral England, where the dessert perhaps evolved from a similar cheese tart, in which the archaic "cheese" was used to describe pies of the same consistency even without that particular ingredient present in the recipe. In North Carolina and Old Salem Cookery, Elizabeth Hedgecock Sparks argues that the name derives from Chester, England. One folk etymology suggests that it was referred to as "just pie", which soon shortened to "jus' pie" and then corrupted to "chess pie". There is also a theory that the word "chess" pie comes from the piece of furniture that were common in the early South called a pie chest or pie safe. Chess pie may have been called chest pie at first because it held up well in the pie chest."

See, I do that but start in Tomorrowland. By the time I get around to Splash and Jungle Cruise there's a wait...

We start in fantasyland and then do the mountains then head over to tomorrowland last... get FP's for space and do buzz, CoP and TTA while we're waiting so that we end up just walking on everything. LOL

Yeah...I can't get up that early! :lol:

Yeah - having a toddler is like a natural alarm clock. Everything shifts back a couple hours when you have kids... you (try to) go to bed earlier... and you get up earlier. :lol: Although - I actually had to wake Lizzy up on our MK day - she was still passed out cold when we got up.
