To Chris,

Thank you for constantly lifting me up and loving me through the bright and dark parts of life. You are the best partner, cheerleader, dishwasher, and cheesecake taste tester I could ever ask for. I love you.

I think the first time I knew Kristin (“Baker Bettie”) Hoffman was the real deal was when I saw how enthralled she was with pie crust: What is the melting point of butter, and how does that affect pie dough? How will the consistency of pie crust change if you use vegetable shortening instead of butter?
