This worked out perfect as the glaze for our first strawberry shortcake of the season. Thank you for the salt as it kept the lumps out of the glaze. Outstanding! Thank you for posting. -
I used the strawberry glaze over angel food cake. My family loved it. Much better than the commercial glaze in a pouch. -
I had extra strawberries from a pary and I did not want them to ruin. I made this as a glaze for to refridegerate and use for toppings over ice cream, strawberry shortcake (The cake was your 7-Up Pound Cake), amd pancakes. Thanks it was easy and economical and tasty. -
This is quite tasty, but I have a confession to make. I didn't make a pie out of this, I used the glaze portion of the recipe for an angel food cake. It was just the thing I was looking for, and will be what I use for my angel food cakes from now on.

Zaar...Wow, what a place! I'm one of the old timers of Zaar. I can't count the number of wonderful dishes I cooked in the past few years since joining. Along the way I have had the pleasure of meeting several Zaar chefs. Talk about your fruits and nuts! lol. I have enjoyed meeting them all.
Family: What's to say...I have had the same sweet husband forever (Good thing....I'd hate to have to break a new one in...=) and live close to a couple of grown children. (Maybe you've met Smoke Alarm Jr. ..her brown rolls are sooo good!) Therefore, my family gets together often to enjoy each other's company and cooking. My greatest joy is six "little to tallerthanme" kids running around calling me Grammy. They wear me out! lol
For the past thirty years I have been a Special Education teacher for grades 9-12 and love it. Took some time off last year to recovery from surgery, chemotherapy and radiation for breast cancer. (Loved the radiation....I keep imagining that we are absolutely napalming the nasty cancer cells tohellandback to keep the little suckers from returning. =) My prognosis is good and now "I'm back in the saddle again". lol. Being a north country "gurl", I am happiest outside...walking, fishing, sitting in front of an outdoor fire or being on water (although in February it's a bit stiff....=0) When indoors I like to read, garden, knit, quilt and paint. During cold Maine weather I like to warm my feet on a very large ( 100 pounds of long legs and huge feet), sweet and furry golden retriever named Kerry (aka KTBRD: Kerry the big red dawg..lol) . In the summer, the dawg and I round up the grandkids, hit the local dairy bar for a Mounds Sundae that is to die for!!!=0) . Then spend a lot of long and lazy summer days at camp . All in all...Boy, Life is good! =)
