See even those who purport to hate pie - actually do like some sort of pie... It can be a puff pastry chicken pie, a non-berry pie, a tart (still a pie cousin), or something with a graham cracker or other such crust.  Who can say that not even one of these ticks a box for them, huh?  It's all PIE!!!

If there is anyone, that person is clearly deranged. [smiley=mad.gif]

Ah, but if given the choice of pie (savory or otherwise) or another food, I'll take the other food.  Every time.

I've changed my siggy to prove it!

Any PIES out there this weekend?  I am trying to decide between baking a peach pie or cobbler, or making some kind of cake.  Show us your PIE porn!

OMG... i was thinking about trying to source some really nice peaches for a cobbler too!
Do cobblers count as pie?

I'll be doing another Chocolate Truffle pie as DH has insisted I must make another one. Looks like maybe an apple-pear cobbler also. I'll definitely take pics this time and post :D

I haven't really been craving pie lately (I'm also more of a savoury person myself) but I make a wicked peach and raspberry pie and I'm sort of thinking I might tackle that this weekend.... Peaches are looking just about right lately.

For my birthday my mom makes me an apple pie (best apple pie ever - dh will back me up on that) instead of a cake. I try to time our annual trip home around my birthday as often as possible. This year we'll be there for dh's birthday instead, so I'm glad he appreciates tradition.  ;D

It's peach pie (or maybe cobbler) day today, ladies & gentlemen!  I'll post a pick when it's done - if my crust turns out alright (last time it was a bit uneven & lopsided, hee hee).  Will have to have Steve's help with the photo though because I'm not that technologically advanced.

I'm letting hubby cook dinner and lunch today.  I'm ill! :(  So no pie for this chica.  I did make crepes yesterday before I started feeling bad though.  They were yummy! ;D
