BUTTERMILK CHESS PIE....A BITE OF SOUTHERN CHARM!
It's summertime! Time to relax, party and escape the daily grind.
Estelle's is a Southern Kitchen. You can drop by anytime and have a glass of sweet tea and a piece of pie. Just like my Mother's Mississippi kitchen......
What's the difference between LIKE and LOVE? A good chess pie made with buttermilk and a touch of lemon!
