Jacques Bourguignon Chablis

Trader Joe's: 
Yes

A light, crisp white made from chardonnay grapes, but in a less oaked style. Citrus notes, without the buttery overtones.

Elaine's Lemon Meringue Pie

Lemon Meringue Pie

My grandmother makes the best lemon meringue pie. She swears by the My-T-Fine brand of lemon pie filing mix, though I've decided that Jell-O brand is an acceptable substitute. Her secret is the lemon juice.

To make this into a pie, we use a one of Jon's pie crusts, pre-baked. However, you could just as easily fill bowls, ramekins, etc. and have as a tasty pudding treat.

Filling Ingredients
1 box lemon pie filling
1/4 cup sugar

Jon's Garden Salsa

Salsa and chips

I began making my own hot sauce during Peace Corps - peppers were plentiful, but good, non-tabasco-style sauces were hard to find (and generally bad). It's always a big hit, but actually really easy to make.
