Still waiting for 50% of our airfare...then we'll come over & I'll bake them fresh for you. Pies, as a rule, don't ship well.

well, the ramekin pies and crisp are gone. I could probably ship the rest of the pie though. Dh was convinced that the year old graham cracker crust would be juuuuuuuuuuust fine. It tastes like old graham crackers. Going to stick to making our own in the future. The ramekin crusts were deeeeeeelicious.

Man, did 00clone call that one or what?!
 
KC is exactly right - pies don't ship well so Hawaii is out of the question. And bake a pie and take it to the 'Iowa City area' ahhhh, no way!

HOWEVER, we have fresh pie, still warm from the oven, at every Cyclone tailgate. So there ya go - find our tailgate.
:rolleyes:

May have to come by & say howdy this fall!
 
…or I can just send you the world's most simple from-scratch pie crust recipe and you can make your own.
:shocked:

My sisters & I were all taught to make crust by our mother. My sisters don't bake pies. Edit: my sisters don't bake pies with light, flaky crusts.

Sometimes a recipe isn't enough. ;)
 
I have never made crust so I just go with graham crackers, butter, and sugar if it needs a bottom, and oats, flour, cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter if it needs a top. It can't have both.

I figure that can't fail.

When hubby & I got married & combined our households, I made him throw away the frozen crusts that he had. I wouldn't even allow them in the house. THAT's how ridiculously picky I am about my pie crust. :)
 
None of this is helping put a pie in my belly. Very disappointed right now.


Even worse, they keep talking about pies right in front of us. Like when you really have to pee, and people start talking about flow rates in the rivers due to all the flooding.

But, to make it worse...for those non-pie crust makers...Alton Brown did some groundbreaking work on pie crusts...I'd suggest watching the episode, or here's the recipe:

Oh, hey...and they have the video:

Right?! It's like, first they pie tease and pretend like I'm gonna be getting some pie. Then I don't get any pie. Then they talk about how they ate the majority of the pie. Then they explain in excruciating detail how they made the delicious pie they said I would get then subsequently ate instead.

My dad was right. Women ARE inherently evil.

so just because I talk about my pie, now you think you are entitled to it? It's my pie to do as I please with it. I'll give it to you if I want to, but I if I say no pie, that means NO PIE! It's disgusting that you can't control the urges of your stomach.

I wish I could like this 20 times! I'll settle for a rep. :)

did you notice that I slipped some pee into the pies?

and yes, someone of sound mind chose to make me their spouse for life. And it's very likely that I shall go home tonight singing the "pee pee pee water water water pie pee pie" song and he will look at me like I've lost my mind. Then realize it's just par for the course.
 
Why did the grocery stores all change over to plump hot dogs instead of the traditional size? I don't remember complaining that their hot dogs were too small. Oscar Meyers still sells traditional size, but I don't like theirs. And I don't always feel like spending for Hebrew International or Nathans.
