Fridays were Harper's favorite. She loved Zed's pot roast and
homemade yeast rolls, covered with butter and right out of the oven. She hopes
to someday be able to make them but she's pretty sure it's in the technique as
much as it is in the recipe. That means she'll have to stand right beside him
and watch every movement as he makes them every week.
Pancakes! I do love pancakes and I was so glad that Zed gave us his
secret to making them. EXCERPT: Zed brought out another platter with six big
pancakes on it and then went on back to the kitchen. "It's Annie's recipe.
Secret is in beating the egg whites first and then folding them into the batter.
Makes good light pancakes."
Blackberry cobbler. It's right there in Zed's cookbook and the
secret is flaky pie dough. He doesn't give out that recipe but he will tell us
that when it's just about done, to brush the top with butter, shake some sugar
on it and let it cook another ten minutes.
Burgers, available from ten thirty in the morning until closing at
night.
EXCERPT: "Zed could put in a burger shop anywhere in the
world and people would flock to it. He should write a recipe book. Bet he could
make a million bucks on it," Wyatt said.
"Probably so, but I don't think he'll share his secrets with anyone," Harper said.
And Harper is so rightβ¦until she proves herself and Zed decides that she's
worthy to touch his recipe book.
And one more just because I like what Zed has to say.
Gingerbread with warm lemon sauce. His secret is good strong
molasses. None of that white syrup or waffle syrup goes in Zed's gingerbread.
EXCERPT: Zed stuck a bowl of lemon sauce in the microwave and
set half a pan of gingerbread on the table. "Life is what you make it, girls.
The past is all over and done with. What you got is the present, because
tomorrow might never get here. Annie told me that a lot when I got to frettin'
about things, so we worked hard at makin' today a good one."

fact, theyβve rarely spoken, and it broke their grandmotherβs heart.
