Patriotic Hand Pies
Foods are often intertwined with memories in our minds. We connect significant events with a certain cookie or cake that was baked for the occasion. Or a delicious meal always reminds us of the special friend with whom we shared both the food as well as a lot of laughter or tears. A lot of the time we don’t even realize a food’s connection until we take a bite and our brains are flooded with emotion and memory.
But as wonderful as good food eaten with even better friends is, what I will remember is something different.
I am not sure if your Memorial day plans involve any team sports, but I am pretty confident that many people’s plans will involve cookouts with good food for sharing. If you have some time and a little inclination, give these hand pies a try. They are delicious and perfectly suited for a summer barbecue.
