Yummy! I'd come over... I love fluffy, fruity, creamy things.
You did it! I'm so proud of you. And you managed to capture the process in the same Waitress way, which of course makes me want to eat as much pie as possible. Paul's been quoting phrases from Earl...maybe I should make him a pie =)
Yum, yum! If I hadn't just had lunch with you, I'd invite myself over for tea!
Cith - I totally had a slice of pie on a plate ready to bring to you and I forgot. Oh well, you can have one tomorrow...
It looks really good. And I don't like fruit pies. Yummy.
Shell, looks delish -sorry I missed it!
This sounds delicious!
Wish I could come and help you eat it, it looks yummy. It's funny reading someone's blog... you can really tell where their passion lie. Your's is cooking, reading, and decorating, oh and adventure. How did the job interview go by the way?
Michelle,
Well, words cannot describe the way that pie looks. It looks like "bliss" but even that word won't do. (what a good movie, too, eh?)
You still need to email me. I am waiting.
And oh, do I wish I could be there to share the pie. But when/if you come back out west, I have found a key lime to die for. Almost literally. But one slice is way to much for one person, so...
Talk to you soon. Let me know how the hunt is going.

Wish I could have some ... are those fresh blueberries?
Looks yummy!
Um, yum, it's almost 2 a.m. and your pie looks so delicious and I should really be sleeping. Thanks for the recipe!
Love,
