Lemon Chess Pie – Checkmate!

Cover Image for Lemon Chess Pie – Checkmate!

My husband is from Arkansas and I am from Wisconsin, two completely different cultures! The speech, food, and entertainment are very different. But we both enjoyed learning each others state’s way of doing things. It was very much a culture shock the first time that I went with him to Arkansas to visit his family. I wasn’t sure if I had stepped into a different world or not!
The south is very different from the north, but I have to say that I very much enjoy going back and forth between the two states and enjoying each place. My hubby’s grandmother told me that I talked too fast and loud. I had never been told that one before! My impression was that everyone talked too slow and quiet! It was pretty funny! But I eventually did get along very well.
I was very impressed with the southern cuisine! My favorite food that I had in Arkansas was lemon chess pie! It was so delicious. It almost had a custard like consistency versus what lemon meringue tastes like. I knew that I had to take this delicious pie back to my home state and make it for my friends and family. They absolutely loved it and you will too!
