My grade-school music teacher, Mrs. P., happened to call me on my birthday earlier this month. We met a few years ago at a party for my Dad’s birthday. She was always a great lady and teacher and it was good to re-connect after many years. She has been reading the blog and as she comes from Chautauqua County, ancestral home of Concord grapes, she wanted to get me the newest cookbook around that also has a Concord grape pie in it that is very close to hers, but sometimes she does it with a crumble rather than a lattice topping.
I have to tuck into a nice chair or sofa or bed to read the book “All About Grapes” published by Morris Press Cookbooks and will tell you more. For now, I can tell you that having an autographed cookbook by the author and my teacher makes me want to cook with grapes and play the guitar and piano as well as sing. Thanks so much, Mrs. P.
