Bah. You can make a damn good, lip smacking pecan pie with the dark
Karo "surp".

I've made many a pecan pie with that dark karo syrup! Been a few years,
tho.

Somewhere, I have a recipe from Alabamastain passed down from
generations. People rave about it. Sometimes I put a tad orange zest
in one.

I got my recipe from my grandmother who lived her whole life in Alabama!
It's a good pie, too.

My recipe came from a SIL, from her grandmother from 'Bama.

My 71 year old invalid roommate is a huge Bama Football fan. I make sure the games are on his TV when they're played. Alabama plays in a bowl game on the 11th and he's excited about it. At 17, he was on his high school football team when he was in a car wreck and received a brain injury. He has very limited use of one side of his body so I handle the TV remote for him. He has trouble articulating what he want's to say and it's very frustrating for him but I make sure those football games are on for him. I'm an evil heretic who cares absolutely nothing about football so I'm in front of my TV or computer wearing my headphones. I have my own physical limitations but my buddy has been trapped in a malfunctioning body for 54 years so I feel that I'm fortunate. Besides, his big sister brings cookies and Diet Dew for me. ヽ(€¢€¿€¢)ノ
