<G> Doubtful about the pie. But I might make banana pudding to take to
the next get-together at a neighbor's house. Most of these people
are from waaay north of the Mason-Dixon line. Banana pudding probably
isn't in their repetoire. It's not common here in SC. So yes, maybe
I'll make some banana pudding. I'll say "Yes! Those are vanilla wafers!
But I made the pudding from scratch."
