What kind of pie will you have tomorrow?

Remember, Obama likes pie. I was going to make an apple pie but will probably wimp out and buy one. Yeah, I'm lazy.

:)

Cherry, pecan, and apple -- my top three.

I denounce and renounce myself and my comments.

we should all be official pardoned and start a new.

It's all I'll eat for dinner - that and champagne, while I watch the day's festivities. In fact, I think I will only eat pie for the next 4 years! :D

:hide:

Gonna have a piece very soon here.

Blueberry..

plus, I think that is the one Obama lusts for the most.

but i'll certainly consider lifting a glass tomorrow night.

Here's a cute story about Jamesons...

Many years ago, on my BD, I was making Irish Coffees. I used a jigger to measure out the Jameson's (I was young, now I just dump it :evilgrin:). My little newphew (about 8 years old then) came by and asked what "that" was. I told him it was Irish Whiskey. He asked if he could try some. I said sure and handed him the glass. He sipped, made a horrible face, then said "sure is smooth."

:rofl:

They are low-cal, right? :D

Absofuckinglutely.

like him.

they are empty calories :)

(Mine didn't turn out looking nearly as good as these, though.)

and am on a one week liquid diet until Monday. :)

but does a cheesecake count? Its in pie form. :P

:D

it's very good

We won!!!! :woohoo:

:fistbump:

that I for one would love to see come back. Why do you hate america ?

(I don't like pie, but would have done a shephard's pie, had I thought of it.)

They're just pasties here. :)

She got it from the miners' wives, Iron Mountain, around 1905.

You know, I might make those tonight. I make a pretty good one, if I do say so myself. ;)

The new McDonalds. Right.:eyes:

More the UP, but you can find pasties in a lot of places down here, and a pasty stand at a fair or festival isn't all that unusual.

I haven't decided yet.

and have been thinking about doing an apple tart, since I'm not all that big on pie.

What time? I'll be there.

I think I'll see what kind of pies Costco has tomorrow. I only like their peach, cherry, and pecan. The apple is too sweet. But they might have key lime in the freezer. Yum! Or I'll hit a local grocery store. Or I'll make one. Pie. I loves me some pie.

I'll have to pick up a Pecan Pie on the way home.

I am diabetic.

I'll do that before getting the kids from school. Good idea!

...having chili first...then apple pie and vanilla ice-cream...

I'd love to make an apple pie. I love to eat the pastry scraps.

...I laughed out loud when I saw that!!

Quiche Lorraine and a side Caesar salad and Martinelli's Cider mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Pastry
1 cup all-purpose flour (I prefer King Arthur Flour)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water

Filling
8 slices bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled (1/2 cup)
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (4 oz)
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
4 large eggs
2 cups whipping cream (You can substitute half and half)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)

1. In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
2. Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
3. Heat oven to 425°F. With floured rolling pin, roll pastry into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch quiche dish or glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in quiche dish. Unfold and ease into dish, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired.
4. Carefully line pastry with a double thickness of foil, gently pressing foil to bottom and side of pastry. Let foil extend over edge to prevent excessive browning. Bake 10 minutes. Carefully remove foil and bake 2 to 4 minutes longer or until pastry just begins to brown and has become set. If crust bubbles, gently push bubbles down with back of spoon.
5. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onion in pie crust. In medium bowl, beat eggs slightly; beat in remaining filling ingredients. Pour into quiche dish.
6. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Obama likes coconut cream. I like pecan, so perhaps I'll make half of each!

The Prez and I both like them.

:9 snowing here, I need comfort food.

Not sure how well it goes with champagne...guess I'll find out! :patriot:

of course they'll go well together! Cheers!!!
