make a pie

...and decided to try something new for me: a very VERY rich chocolate cream pie. I think that I gained a few pounds just licking the bowl after I was finished. And, to make matters even worse (better), I’m going to top it off with real whipped cream this morning.

I also volunteered to bring an appetizer, and to make up for the mega-calorie dessert, I’m bringing a tray of raw veggies and a low-calorie dip.

Off to the kitchen now…

A year after my brother died, I baked my first pie: apple. It was one of his favorites types, so I did it to commemorate him.

I sometimes make pies, and once again, often crustless.

...for someone whose mother died last weekend. A group of people from my church is taking dinner to the family tomorrow.

Tried a new recipe for a frozen peach cream pie. Didn’t have to turn the oven on.

I’m making a pie RIGHT NOW. It’s an Angel Pie with a meringue shell and lemon filling. I hope it turns out, but I think I mixed the lemon filling a little weird . . . but hopefully it’ll still taste good. Wish me luck!

Okay, I finally got my garbage disposal fixed, so I have a plan in case something goes horribly wrong. . . Time to get crackin’!

I’m actually going to do this. I just printed two recipes off of www.123easyaspie.com, and I’m going to make at least one of them. Both look pretty easy, but it’s still a pie, right?! I hope they’ll be good. Maybe I should get my garbage disposal fixed, just in case . . .

I haven’t decided what kind to make yet, but I want to do it soon! Anybody have any suggestions? (Or just favorites?)

I don’t suppose it counts if I pour chocolate pudding into a pre-made graham cracker crust?

Actually, I love fruit pies, so that’s what I really want to make. But seriously – chocolate and graham crackers? Yum.

I made the lemon meringue pie and tomorrow I’m giving it to the boyfriend. It’s hard to make from scratch. Wow. Going to nap soon.
