Perfect-a-crust

When I moved to Delaware, twenty-five years ago, I was a young Mennonite housefrau that could spend all day and mess up a perfectly clean kitchen making two pies for a funeral, fund raiser or some other such thing for which I had foolishly volunteered.  When I got to Delaware, I found my two "little" sisters, six and nine years my junior, turning out wonderful pies with seemingly little effort.  I decided that I would learn to make pie somehow.  Some way.

And so, I did.  I found a never fail pie crust and set about learning the tricks of the trade.  And for years, I made pies and they got to be easier and easier.  The one thing that was always hard for me was getting even pie crusts.  But one day I found "Perect-a-Crust" pie crust forms and it changed everything for me.  I love rolling out my crusts to exact thickness and dimensions.  I never have to worry that it is lopsided and will fit in one direction but not another.  I have given away numerous sets of these -- even bought one on e-bay for a young friend a few weeks ago.  I am so happy with the help given to me in the form of three plastic circles.   The only thing that I wish is that someone would make them in stainless steel and maybe a fraction of an inch thicker.  I have had a set that broke for me, and that isn't very handy, but because there are three rings, you can usually improvise.
