You have been PIED!

   So this week in my pie world, I experimented with a new filling flavor that I call - Nutella Cinnamon Cream or Lazy Girl's Chocolate.  Either name works for me, as I was feeling sloth-like and just grabbed the Nutella I had in the cabinet rather than getting in the car or (gasp) walking a few blocks to the Community Market.  Juliet tells us, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.", and that's the philosophy I am sticking to when it comes to Lazy Girl's Chocolate.  It's pretty damn good with any name.
   Another fantabulous thing happened this week.  I was commissioned to make a pie.  This is a super big deal.  It means that someone has eaten my pie, not gotten sick after, and actually loved it enough to pay for another.  Considering that up until now I have been forcing virtually everyone I know to take pie home with them, I was psyched to see a little green make it's way into my hand.
   So I made a beautiful apple pie, put it in a cute polka dot box, and made an adorable little tag which said, "You have Been Pied! by Eye on the Pie".  How much fun was that?  A lot!
