Waaasup!

	Earlier in October, Ilia went to her first Hockey Game. She saw the Portland Winterhawks beat the Saskatoon Blades 4-2.
She had great fun and played with a new friend whose dad works at Nike with Pappy. Ilia came home with a Winterhawk puck and stick and talks constantly of hockey and wants to go to another game.

Ilia bakes her first cake!

Of course, after going to a hockey game, Grandma was worried that Pappy was turning her little darling into a tomboy. Obviously, that fear can no longer exist after watching the future Betty Crocker create her first cake.

Recipe of the Month

Lemon Meringue Tarts
from Lightandtasty.com

3 egg whites 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar 3 tablespoons sugar FILLING: 3/4 cup sugar Sugar substitute* equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar 3 tablespoons cornstarch 1-1/3 cups cold water 3 egg yolks, beaten 1/4 cup lemon juice 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel Lemon slices and mint sprigs For meringue, in a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar; beat on high until stiff peaks form. Drop meringue into eight mounds on parchment-lined baking sheets. Shape into 4-in. cups with the back of a spoon. Bake at 225° for 55 minutes. Turn oven off and do not open door; let meringues dry in oven for 1 to 1-1/2 hours. For filling, in a saucepan, combine the sugar, sugar substitute and cornstarch. Gradually stir in the water until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir about half of the hot mixture into the egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil. Cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Gently stir in lemon juice and lemon peel. Cool to room temperature without stirring. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, fill meringue shells with lemon mixture. Garnish with lemon slices and mint. Yield: 6 servings.
