Dad made this every winter Sunday. He used leftover rotisserie chicken and frozen vegetables — never apologized for the shortcuts. Said the pie crust was where the love went. He'd roll it out on the counter with Mama's rolling pin and crimp the edges with a fork. I still have that rolling pin.
“Winter Sundays belonged to him and that rolling pin.”
