kentucky derby pie
May 5, 2016
My parents’ friend Jane is from Kentucky and ever since I can remember, she and her husband Ed have hosted a Kentucky Derby party. My parents attend almost, if not every, year (I only had the privilege of stopping by one year after a dance performance at my nearby high school. I missed the race and was too young to know what I was missing in the Mint Juleps). Armed with very limited knowledge about the horses, Mama and Randy make their bets, drink mint juleps, and sometimes come away with a pie for picking the winner.
