"Crackle Top Pie" . . . I like that! I'm Southern, too, like rocky-cat, and that name sounds like a recipe that's been handed down from generations on a worn-out scap of faded paper. I was just searching for something to bring to a dinner party this weekend, and this showed up in my email box. Is that serendipity?!? As for "ugly" baked goods, as someone once sang: "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife. So from my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you." Ugly wins every time!
