Hi guys! I’m Karen. And I love to cook. I have no special training, so sometimes I really do feel like a food charlatan. I especially like dessert. One of these days my metabolism is going to slow down, all my calories are going to catch up with me, and I will turn into a blimp. If, in a few years, you see a human-like figure rolling down the street in jogging shorts, you will know that the worst has happened.
Karen, I LOVE your blog!! It’s fabulous and fun and you are a great writer, a good cook and very funny. Your food pictures look great too. I am SO impressed with your adventure. Go fo it girl!
This blog is terrible! And by terrible, I mean that I want to make every single recipe and thus become a blimp myself because my metabolism is already starting to slow down… But it will all be worth it. Great photos! Great blog! :)
Thanks Kristin! I’m glad you are liking it :)
Karen, the recipes look great and the photos are gorgeous (how do you do it?!). If you like strawberry pie, you might like this strawberry pizza recipe: http://www.oldstorefrontantiques.com/strawberrypizza.htm It’s from Almost Home restaurant in Greencastle, Indiana and it is their specialty.
Enjoy!

That strawberry pizza looks incredible!! I will have to try it for sure!
Hi Karen,
Just found your blog while googling “strawberry glace pie”. With a freezer full of strawberries, I tried your recipe. Nice touch to add a cream cheese bottom! Well, the filling tasted sublime but was a bit runny on account of the frozen fruit. Note to self, next time use more cornstarch to compensate for additonal moisture.
Thanks,

Thanks Esther! That is actually really good to know since I can see myself getting desperate for this pie in some future winter when fresh strawberries are $8 a pound. And in the end, who really cares about a runny pie anyway? Just gives you more of an excuse for licking your plate.
