Two of our favorite pies

Hi everyone,

Hope things are going well for you and your family. Things have finally begun to settle down here around the house, shew! I know last time I wrote you soccer season had ended and some great spring weather was finally moving in, course lately it's been a little quirky with warm days and cool nights, but I sure enjoy seeing more sunshine that's for sure.

With these warmer days it got me thinking about some of the spring and summer desserts my grandmother used to make and I decided to share these with you. These have always been favorites, not just of our family, but all those visitors my grandmother would have over on Sunday afternoons after dinner. Sitting on the porch with a cool breeze coming through the screen, my grandmother sitting in her favorite chair, you know the big cushion’s with the rose colored floral patterns, and me sitting in the rocker that was to big for me grinning like a mule chewing on a barbed wire fence eating my pie.......=)

I hope that you enjoy these delicious treats as much as I do.

Strawberry Pie (an easy no bake pie)

Let me know what you think of these recipes, I am always looking for feedback oh how they worked out for you and the family.

Until then, keep the oven cranking and and eye open.

Thanks,

Bird

Two new delicous pie recipes

Well, we have taken a turn here and gone into pie's now (at the urging of my son) these two pies are absolutely great. The blackberry chess pie brings back so many memories of me as a child "helping" my grandmother in the kitchen with blackberry stained hands and lips...=)

I hope you enjoy these as much as we do and would really like to get some feedback on how these recipes worked out for you.
