Lemon Meringue Pie
directly lifted from Gorgeous Cakes by Annie Bell.

Half a 16oz box of graham crackers
1/2C unsalted butter, melted
Finely grated xest and juice of 4 lemons
1 14oz can condensed milk
4Lg eggs, room temp, separated
1/2C superfine sugar

Whizz crackers to fine crumbs in processor. Put in bowl, add butter, toss until crumbs are evenly coated. Press onto sides and bottom of 8" springform pan (3" sides). Start with sides, then do bottom, pressing down with fingers.

Preheat oven to 350F. After zesting and before juicing, roll lemons on counter to release the juice. Comboine zest and jice with condensed milk in a bowl, beating until you have a smooth cream. Beat in egg yolks and pour on top of crust. Using clean beaters, beat whites in large bowl until they rise to a froth. Sprinkle sugar over them, 1Tbsp at a time, beating well with each addition until you have a glossy stiff meringue.
Mound meringue on top of cream, taking it to the edge of the shell. Bake 30 minutes r until surface us lightly golden and crusty, and custard is set. Remove and cool. Run knife around the edge to loosen, then unhinge sides. Pie is best the day it's made. If you refridgerate it, bring it up to room temp before serving.

... or did you mean the Lemon Surprise (surprise, it's tofu!) pie?

too hot, volunteered myself for sort out duty as our store is a mess and I need room to build servers but far too hot.

'Mornin' folks!

Office hate #4: People who call wanting to speak with someone not in, wants to know when they will be back, and refuses to leave a message or call back number. Trust me, I'll probably hear about it later through someone that a director in another department was bitching and moaning about some crap or another...

...I'm hiding in the breakables room.
