Congrats on the hatch!

Thanks. I think it was my first 100%. These were all my eggs. Shipped eggs a whole different story of course.

@Pensmaster, I just do GF. I don't have celiac (thank goodness!), just some mild symptoms. I'm also not on Facebook or Twitter. BYC is as social media as I get. But thanks for the info!

I bake a LOT. It seems we constantly have some sort of treat in our house ! Its pretty hard though because I eat paleo (sugar free, dairy free, and gluten free). I dont think my food tastes too heathly though. We make it work! Did you guys make anything for the holiday?

I made my husband his favorite dessert, lemon meringue pie. I get whatever lemon/meringue won't fit in the pan, since I can't have the crust.

I have a lemon meringue pie question. I am using my MIL's recipe, which always worked for her. Mine turns into lemon soup pie. Tasty, but a mess.

This last time, after the pie was made, I read online that the meringue has to go on the filling right away, while the filling is hot, or the lemon turns watery which is my exact problem. Does anyone here know anything about this working? I made the pie one year when my MIL was visiting... soup. If she knew why, she wasn't saying. She just laughed.

Homemade Stromboli.
Using almond flour.
it's split up top in the oven but it was oh so good no matter what.

What's in stromboli? I've only heard of it, never made it. And, @MIAMI LEGHORN, was that just almond flour...? Oh, be still my heart... Something I can bake AND eat...?

stromboli can have any meat and cheese combo in it----ham and provolone, sausage and mozzarella
