I created this recipe for my very first recipe contest. It was my ONLY entry and I won first place, Best in Show and was filmed for a show during it aired on ABC LifeMoments and was excited to see the Food Network filming the event that year for the first time. This recipe gave me an amazing start to a new career of expanding recipe creations, winning first place ribbons since 2003 and appearing on the Food Network many times for my creations. The LifeMoments episode showed me raising my son and enjoying my talent in baking-this pie helped create generation memories
