thoughts of pecan tarts

shared by AR Flanagan, her sister

With Christmas just around the corner, I  am reminded of the many activities that we as sisters participated in during the holiday season.

We were usually recruited by our mom to participate in one particular activity which I vividly remember. That activity was making pecan tarts from scratch, that she would then wrap in batches with shiny cellophane and ribbon, to give to friends and family as holiday treats.

I remember how we had to carefully mold the dough into each individual circle on the tart pans. Cyn was very good at this since she had such long fingers that would reach to the bottom of the mold very nicely.

Even though we, as sisters, were "voluntold" to make the tarts, I look back on this memory and crack a little smile.
