boys and pies.

the week before last i had made plans to cook dinner for a gentleman. knowing full well that no dinner is complete (or worth eating) with out dessert, i whipped up my first summer pie of the season. now, i wouldn't be surprised if you all thought that cake was my passion, but that couldn't be further from the truth. pie is where my heart lies. i combined three parts strawberries to one part blueberries, sugar, cornstarch and such and topped it all with a beautifully woven lattice crust.

when my guest canceled on me last minute i did what any other spiteful baker would do. grabbed a beer and a quarter of the pie. ate. drank and napped. a very satisfying evening indeed.
