Every Christmas. Grandma would make a cherry-o cream cheese pie, her favorite. In front of the adults, she would say, 'Now just give me a sliver ." But then she would come back through the kitchen where us kids were eating, and tell me, "Cut me a decent piece of that pie!"

I loved that little tea pot! Holidays are for pigging out - no slivers of pie for me! haha
I know Mother-In-Law's Tongue! I think it is also called Snake Plant. I used to have one, they are almost indestructible. Your grandmother seems to have had a huge and wonderful effect on your life. Wonderful memories.
Hello,
Wonderful memory, the cherry cheese pie sounds yummy. Happy Saturday, enjoy your day and weekend. I want to thank you for all the visits and comments on my blog this past year. I am looking forward to visiting your blog in 2019. I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
that is so funny and sweet about the sliver. Mother had a teapot like this, it was only about 5 or 6 inches tall.. my grandmother had mother in law tongues under her house and we have some in our front yard. Hope you holidays are going well. Merry Christmas
Such a fun memory. I bet it was delicious!
A decent piece is what I want too. It is a great story. My wife is making me mince meat pie this year which is a family tradition back to my grandma and her homemade mince meat.
Sweet memories...one of my aunts always had Mother-in-law's tongue plants on her porch.
Memories, precious memories! I always ask for a sliver too:) Merry Christmas dear Karen, HUGS!
