Round Out a Square Meal

“Cutting the pie” has come to mean dividing something good. And that’s exactly what we are doing with this Cookbook—sharing with you favorite pie recipes from farm women in all parts of the country and from our own Test Kitchens. We hope you will enjoy making and serving many of these luscious pies. You can do so with complete confidence that your family will compliment you on your baking skill and guests will beg for your recipes.

Remember that pies please men. Since men are the great pie eaters and promoters, let’s give a rancher friend the last word—his definition of his favorite dessert: “A triangle of pie is the best way ever discovered to round out a square mealxs.”
