I always dreamed of baking pies with a perfect crust just like my grandma's. She had a secret touch I never got, even after lots of tries. My last go at it gave me a soggy bottom and hard edges, which totally put me off. Life got busy and I slowly dropped the whole idea over time. Now I'm kinda wanting to pick it back up but feel stuck. Anyone have tips for getting past kitchen fails like this? I could use some simple advice on pie crust that won't make me quit again.
I see a lot of dreams get lost in confusing permit systems. For me, the endless hoops just made it not worth it anymore.
That wedding disaster proved to me that quitting can be the right choice, despite what people say.
