it’s true … i’ve never made a pie before.
until last thursday.
inspired by this pin via pinterest,
i decided to attempt my first pie, pumpkin and fearless.
using store bought pie crust. i know, baby steps. i crafted this beautiful crust.
it was easier than it looked. and totally worth it.
i used canned pumpkin, which she once told me was ok, and her word is gold.
i followed the recipe on the back of the can with minor changes to the spices used.
it turned out better than expected. beautiful and delicious. really delicious. and really beautiful.
i did it. i made pie!
I wish you made a video showing how you did that braiding process. How long did you make the strips. I agree with all the comments. I have another adjective: Elegant.
This is brilliant!
Bravo!! When I discovered I couldn’t make perfect pie crust like my mom could, I learned to use store bought. Nothing at all wrong with that. Yours is absolutely beautiful and I am going to try the braid around the edge. thanks for posting.
P.S. You should start celebrating annual Pi DAY every March 14th (3.14)=pi. And EVERYONE makes pie’s on Pi day! Get on the band wagon Michael!
