Well, I feel like a complete slacker. I just realized that I have not written a new post for a month. How time flies... What have I been doing with my time? That is a good question actually. What have I been doing? The usual routine of my life: work, eat, listen to music, take photographs, read, cook, hang out with people I love, walk the dog, bake, think about pie, make pie and not sleep enough. It's a good life.
What I have learned is that the more I think about pie the more I realize my desire to turn everything into a pie. It is a sickness really. If I eat something interesting or unusual or someone talks about something they ate or remembered eating or suggests and idea. It's on. In my head, I am already turning it into a pie.
Sometimes, I stumble across an actual pie recipe that blows my skirt up. This happened with Snickerdoodle Pie. It seemed so weird... pie shell, cake batter and cinnamon syrup on top... bake. Presto - a yummy cinnamon coffee cake type of deal.

And then there was the Blackberry Lime Cream Pie. Come on now! How can that possibly be bad? I saw this recipe in Food And Wine about a year ago. I finally made it and it was indeed pie madness. Take a little homemade blackberry jam and top it with a very tasty lime cream. And.. there you have it... a beautiful and tasty treat. Really, this pie is best suited for Summer. But what the hell. It was still fantastic!!

Then there were Lavender Lemon Bars. What? Wow, that doesn't even sound good at all. Lavender has always reminded me of soap. Let's just say that I was not a fan of lavender in food. But I am now! This is how it happened: I was working at Williams Sonoma. This woman came in and asked if we had lavender. We get to talking and before you know it I have a emailed recipe for Lavender Lemon Bars. Let's just say I was not convinced. But they really are quite lovely. The lavender is in the crust portion of the lemon bar. And it's not overpowering. Very nice indeed!!
