    From the Greenwood/Phinney page:
    "And here’s a little tidbit about the GSC that we just discovered - you can forgoe your own holiday baking and buy your holiday pies from the GSC. Every Wednesday from now through Dec. 23, the Senior Center will have pies for sale: fruit, lemon meringue, holiday favorites like pumpkin and pecan, and some specialty pies, will be available to order and pick up at the GSC. Prices range from $7-$12 depending on the size and flavor. There’s also a selection of small, individual-size pies."

    It would seem like an most excellent idea to get pies made for the holiday by someone's mom or grandma, instead of a bakery, for the non-bakers or the busy out there,

    Excellent idea. Mom goes overboard making Christmas cookies (gift baskets for friends) every year. Maybe should suggest she sell some. She is planning 12 different recipes this year. Krumkake, rum balls, spritz.. oh my!

    Gordy, I think I know your mom....I make about 14 different kinds myself, krumkake, sandbakkles, spritz,pepperkake, gingerbread ...I'm Scandinavian, we don't buy cookies. Perhaps your mom and I should start a business?? But I think getting pies from the ladies at the Senior Center is a fabulous idea for people who do not bake!

    I saw that and thought it was an excellent idea. Less than I would have gotten them for from Marie Callendars and probably better pies.

    Angelatini-I can loan you my spritz press/cookie press. Mom uses her own cookie press for the spritz. Good thing she has a long counter in her kitchen for all of that baking.
