The recipe only called for half a cup or so, and I wasn't about to buy a quart of it just for that. (Similar peeve: When a recipe calls for half a cup of celery and it's only available in huge amounts!)

I have no idea what else to use buttermilk for, as a rule, and while I COULD get it in powdered form, it would still probably spoil anyway.

In the meantime, I was thinking of making lemon-meringue pie instead - for now, anyway. (I never have, but ever since hearing of how Amelia Bedelia saved the day by making one, I thought it might be fun. Of course, I've EATEN it before...)

Will you be using orange rind?

Celery sticks? Stuffed celery? Stir-fried celery?

Perhaps I should start the BubbaGump Celery company.

Ranch salad dressing. The Joy of Cooking has a good one, although I
omit the mayonnaise, to save on fat and because I prefer a thinner
dressing. Of course, if I'm going to dip celery sticks in it, I make
it thicker.

You can add vinegar to regular milk to make a great buttermilk substitute
for baking. I do that all the time when I make my quick breads. Google
for the correct ratio.

I don't blame you. Around here a quart of buttermilk runs $2.50 to $3
and most recipes call for one cup. It will keep for a while but that
would mean at least four different recipes to use it up. I used to just
use regular milk and add vinegar in place of buttermilk. Then I
discovered powdered buttermilk. A quarter cup of that and 3/4 cup water
gives me the one cup I need. It isn't exactly cheap, but it is cheaper
than regular buttermilk but, more important, there is no waste.

There are lots of things that you can use buttermilk for... cakes,
waffles, pancakes, biscuits, scones, fried chicken ...

Lemon meringue pie is good and most people like it. I have to chuckle
about my father in law and his lemon meringue pie problems. He didn't
like it. They were at a friend's house for dinner and the wife had made
a lemon meringue pie for dessert. He was a good guest and always had
what was served and made positive remarks. He raved about the woman's
pie, and whenever they ate there she always served lemon meringue pie
because he had liked it so much.

On a hot sunmmer day there's nothing so good as to chug-a-lug a quart
of ice cold buttermilk.

I don't drink milk either but occasionally buttermilk is a real treat.

My dad liked to drink buttermilk. I just buy the powdered kind for use in
baking and cooking. I don't use it often.

I don't believe I know one person who *doesn't* like it. It's second
only to coconut cream, in my opinion.

I have a friend who likes some cream pies. But mostly the pie eaters I know
eat fruit pies.

Something to think about Doris... you live in the real world. Julie
lives in a world of lies, ignorance and denial. If you go to diners,
restaurants, cafeterias you will see that lemon meringue is one of the
single most frequently offered. Only in Boveland does no one like lemon
meringue pie. My FiL was the only person I knew who disliked it.

You have diners and cafeterias there? Only cafeterias I know of are in
hospitals and they are not likely to have any kind of pie since they
switched over to healthy menus. We don't really have any diners here. We
have a few places that call themselves diners but they don't have the same
sort of menu that a real diner does.

I'll try some lemon meringue pie whenever I can because I don't get a chance too often. Most of the time, it's a disappointment - too sweet, not tart enough, or gummy. The last time had some was a couple of weeks ago. It was too sweet and I left half on a plate. I'm ever hopeful that a good one will come my way. Perhaps it'll happen soon.

I haven't had a coconut cream pie in about a decade. Those never disappoint.. OTOH, we have haupia pies here which is a coconut pudding pie. Typically they come with chocolate or Okinawan sweet potato filling. I like 'em!

I think the problem people have with lemon meringue pies is the fact
that a good many of them are not home-made. You can buy some truly
horrid frozen ones around here.

My lemon pies that I make from scratch are extremely good.

Just goes to show that tastes vary. I don't like lemon meringue or
coconut cream pie. I'm not a big fan of coconut or of lemon desserts.
I prefer both coconut and lemon in savory dishes.

Cherry pie is my favorite; I like most fruit pies, plus chocolate, pecan,
pumpkin, and sweet potato pies.

My mother made coconut cream pie and banana cream pie on alternate
Sundays for my father. I love lemon meringue but don't make it but
once in a blue moon.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

Nothing good ever came from a piece of cherry pie.

Tastes do indeed vary. Sour cherry is at the top of my list, with peach
and rhubarb being tied for second place. Apple pie seems to be one of
the favourite for most people, but it is way down on my list.

I don't know a single person who likes coconut cream pie. Then again, most
of the people I know are not big pie eaters.

Coconut cream is OK, but not my favorite. I prefer coconut custard.

I like pie. In order of preference: Peach, apple, cherry, coconut
custard, blueberry, most anything else.

Obviously you don't know many people, maybe two, your abusive spouse
and daughter... I don't know anyone who doesn't love coconut cream
pie... I love coconut cream pie but I love coconut custard pie more...
I grew up on Dugan's coconut custard pie. My favorite ice cream was a
Good Humor coconut bar or a toasted coconut bar, alas no more, now
they have toasted almond bars, haven't tried one.

Why would powdered buttermilk spoil??????????????????? For
that matter liquid buttermilk IS spoiled milk and will keep
in your 'fridge pretty much forever. Just give it a shake
before using.

Why do you think that powdered food wouldn't spoil? Eventually all food
will spill. And why in the world would you think that buttermilk is spoiled
milk? It's not. It's the liquid that remains after butter is churned. My
grandma churned her own butter with milk from her cow. I know these things.
