Personal Notes:
For one of Mom's birthdays, I asked her what she wanted for dessert. She said she used to love the Rum Pie served at Babe's Restaurant, that used to be next door to American Valet on Wisconsin Avenue in D.C. I'm not sure how that pie was made there, but I made this one and she said it was close. This one comes from Tidewater Cookbook.
