The life and times of an omnivore

My first pasty!!

 

I moved out west from Michigan almost 10 years ago and it's been even longer than that since I've had a pasty. Pasties are a to the U.P. what hamburgers are to Burger King. While I'm not a Yooper (I'm a troll) I still love a good pasty and had a sudden craving for one yesterday. So I found a recipe online, made a trip to the store (sadly I had no idea what a rutabaga looked like), and voila! My first pasty attempt. It was a hit with my daughter (who had never had a pasty) but I think I will tweak the recipe a little next time.
