Sorry about being so gone lately I am working on a few things and trying to gather and sort recipes as to what's on here what's on Facebook and making sure both have everything on it. Along with starting a new blog and a new business venture.
I will share the new blog once I have completed it. :)

Buttermilk pie with blackberry glaze
Buttermilk Pie
1/2 cup butter, salted, softened
2 cups white sugar
3 tablespoons self-rising flour
3 eggs
1 cup buttermilk
3 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (9 inch) deep dish pie crust
( or crush up vanilla wafers, about 2 cups of the cookies, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Put the crumbs in pie dish and pour butter over, toss around to coat. Press around bottom of pan, I use a wad of plastic wrap so it doesn't stick to me. It's ready to use)
Cream the butter an sugar together. Add the vanilla and flour. Mix well again and beat in eggs one at a time. Add buttermilk ( make sure to shake buttmilk before pouring so you get all flavor and not the clearish stuff)
Pour into pie crust bake at 400 for 10 min. Reduce heat to 325 and continue baking for 50 min. If the crust begins to burn put foil over it.
You can replace sugar with agave if wanted. This tastes wonderful with almond extract instead of vanilla as well. Especially when topped with strawberry almond glaze. Making my mouth water right now!
Blackberry Glaze to coat
1 small bag of frozen blackberries
3/4 cups of sugar
2 tablespoons of cornstarch
2 tablespoons of lemon juice (try not to skip this, flavor difference is pretty big if you don't add. Really makes the berries taste fresh and not frozen)
While you are cooking the pie, in a large bowl combine the sugar and berries. Let sit for 10 min. In a saucepan pour the sugar and berries into it, over medium heat get the berries melted and continue to stir so it doesn't burn. Mix in the cornstarch and lemon juice. Raise the heat a little and stir frequently, continue to cook unil it's bubbling but not boiling and the sauce looks more like a gelatin than the purple color, it will be more of a clear dark purple. Once it really starts to stick remove from heat. I time this to where there is only 5 min left of cooking time for the pie, and I scoop out the glaze and put on the pie and continue to cook for last 5 min.
Remove the pie from heat and let completely cool. I DO NOT reccomend eating hot, it's a custard it tastes much better cold, like pumpkin pie is better cold. This is delicious with my homemade whipped cream, under all recipes on my ReelScrumptious blog.

Virtual cooking party
The results of the poll had pasta for the win!!! So on May 1st we will all be cooking pasta! That's ANY pasta of your choosing, whether it's a new recipe, family recipe or one that you found and wanted to use. If you find one that you wanted to use, please give the credit where it's due. You can comment to this post on the night of May 1st immediately following when you cooked and post your recipe and photo or wait until the next day. If you are in another country post when you can. If you would rather go to Facebook and view more posts there then look for ReelScrumptious Kitchen. You can like on the page and post what you made or just talk to me about food or whatever!
I am putting it so far out to give everyone an opportunity to be involved so that everyone has time to make a recipe and test it or just to have the funding to make what they really want to. If you can't wait to tell me your idea then let me know it on here or on Facebook!!
Later this weekend I will be making basil pizza sticks with the kids and hopefully I remember to take photos things get crazy with a camera, two kids a dog and a craft doing together. But I will try because I really want to involve kids crafts in this blog and on my Facebook page.
Have a wonderful Saturday everyone!!
