This weeks Top Three ... Childhood Food Favorites...

• Pam, from Enumclaw, WA remembers her favorite childhood food memory - Camping & Roasting Hot Dogs
• Sue, from Wallace, NC remembers her favorite childhood food memory - Grandma's Teacakes
• Eleisia, from Jerome, ID (now CA) remembers her favorite childhood food memory - Roasted Corn on the Cob
  .... I remember when my Mother was in a pie making mood.. she would spend the entire day getting her pie shells ready ... no matter what fillings she decided on ... we always knew there would be a few Chocolate Cream Pies for the family to enjoy. I think what I remember most was that she would always save the small "pot-pie" sized foil pans for my sister and I to make our very own. Thanks Mom. - GrannaB ...
