Yes, daddy is finally back to celebrate mommy's birthday on last Sunday. This year, I have to commend on daddy's effort in baking a 'shoofly' pie for mommy. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this, 'shoofly' pie is a Pennsylvania Dutch delight. Legend has it that the process of baking the pie will attract the flies that you have to shoo them off, thus giving its name the 'shoofly' pie. It has been quite some time since daddy baked something. The last time he did that is about four or five years ago when he baked a banana cake. So, mommy should feel deeply honored when daddy wanted to bake something for her birthday.
The 'shoofly' pie is pretty unusual in its taste. I guess it is due to the molasses that is used as part of the ingredients. Frankly speaking, we have not tasted a 'shoofly' pie before, so we do not know its actual taste. Anyway, the pie that daddy baked turn out to be pretty okay, well at least, it is edible. Thank you!
