#PretendCookingShow: Chiffon Pie 🍓🥧🍑

Summertime for the Garner Girls: there was always a garden. Farmers markets were king. We ate dinner on the deck my dad built. And for dessert, we had mom’s chiffon pie. ☀️🥧

Mom’s pie had an irresistible crunch:chew ratio. Just sweet enough, not a bit more. And the filling—peaked whipped cream with berries and/or whatever stone fruit smelled fresh at the fruit stand—absolute summer heaven. Perfect for company, but with middle-of-the-week ease, this Southern Living standard felt just right for a Pretend Cooking Show with Pat Garner.

My work with @kitchenaid comes honestly—everything from mom’s kitchen was mixed with a KitchenAid hand mixer, and it’s still true today. Case in point: beaten egg whites and whipped cream for your new favorite dessert. Let me know how it goes! #KitchenAidAmbassador

    Pie lovers which of the ten commandments is the hardest to keep? Is it lying, stealing, adultery, misuse of God's name? If we are treated according to our sins we would justly end up in hell, but wait God is rich in mercy providing a savior His Son Jesus Christ. By a simple prayer of faith, ask Jesus into your life and you will be born again. (Saved from hell)
