baby don't you cry, gonna make a pie


i watched waitress yesterday for the first time.


first of all, it is now one of my favorite movies, and it makes me want a baby...more than i already did anyway.

and second of all, i am dying to make some terrific pies now.

i've only ever made two kinds of pies - dutch apple pie and pumpkin pie (mine's special though - i add orange peel and put it in a graham cracker crust). they're both delicious, but i need some new pie recipes.

(that's my apple pie. not really pretty, but very tasty.)

what's your favorite kind of pie to bake?

  1. Salty pie : it is zucchini and goat cheese pie

    Sugary pie : chocolate, pear & pecan pie, the perfect mix

    But I'm in love with real tarte Tatin

  2. I have recently become addicted to 'no bake' pies... chocolate and key lime are both super easy, and quick! But just last night I made up my own peanut butter/chocolate pie, and it was delightful! I am going to try my hand at baking pies this fall :)

  3. hello! i can't answer your question b/c i've never made a pie! i'm the worst baker in the world. for a while i wasn't even allowed to use the stove at home b/c i always ended up making such a mess! i'm very jealous that you can make such a tasty treat without blowing something up. :) and btw--i love waitress! i just watched it the other day as well.

    p.s. i love your blog. i read it religiously.

    Orrrr for sweet pie: Banoffee or chocolate cream.

    Mmmm, pie...

  5. The Waitress is my FAV movie. Favorite quote:

    "If I had a penny for everything I loved about you...I would have many pennies"

    mmmm...now I want to eat a pie.

  10. Oh man, I watched that movie about a month after my son was born and I bawled my eyes out! It's one of my favorites now too! I wish I had some good pie recipes to share but the only ones I have are for pretty basic pies.

  11. Although I haven't ever really made a pie from scratch, I think I just might do that!

  15. I love this movie soooo much...I know what you mean, it didn't help with the baby fever!

    I have never really made pies, though I enjoy nothing more than a good custard or chococate meringue pie

  16. Hi Jasmine, I love you blog! This summer I've been doing a lot of ice cream pies which are so nice and cool in the heat! Vanilla ice cream and orange sherbet on a graham cracker crust is like a dreamsicle!

  17. I loved Waitress! My sister and I always talk about how we have "girl crushes" and Keri Russell is totally mine. Sis is more partial to Gwen Stefani.

    Not much of a pie baker myself but I have had a hankering to make a quiche lately which I guess could be considered a savory pie.

    I hope you used your dutch door ledge to cool that apple pie!

  18. I love that movie and I did twitter that I was going to watch it but I never got around to it because I was so tired by the time I got home last night. I love baking in general. But my specialty is pumpkin. Mmmmm

    and i love pie. all of it. in all it's varieties.

  23. I've been reading your blog for awhile now but I don't know if I've ever posted. But- I love that movie!!!

  24. Love pecan pie with caramel and dark chocolate drizzled on top and it is a must to serve it with homemade vanilla ice cream. xo

  25. I LOVE a good pecan pie. My mantra for a good pecan pie is the more pecans the better.

    My great grandmother was from Georgia so I can't help my love of southern treats.

  26. I really liked that movie. I don't like to make pies but love Olallieberry pies from Hof's! So good.

  27. I LOVE Waitress too! Fell in love with Ms. Keri. Such a cute movie.

  28. I love it! I've only baked pies against my will but when hubby and I moved into our new house, I swore I would be baking pies all the time... haven't yet... but I want to make a chocolate creme pie! Just afraid I'd eat the filling first...

  29. I love pie! My favorite ever is a vegan blueberry pie from this vegan restaurant in Dallas called Spiral Diner. It's a close tie with my mom's homemade pumpkin pie from real pumpkins (none of that can stuff psh). I am a lousy baker but I make a mean no bake pina colada pie. (Graham cracker crust, frozen pina colada mix, pineapple, cool whip... yum!)

  30. I love this movie! I'm a huge fan Felicity (Keri Russell)
    You sound like me-I so want a baby girl after seeing this movie- especially the ending were they are walking down the street mother and daughter-

    Have a lovely weekend!

  31. Waitress was a charming film; my partner and I loved it. As for pies, my favorite is a Chiles Rellenos pie (non-traditional, but still yummy).

    I just think Keri Russell is the cutest thing ever.

  36. pumpkin pie!!! but um... i unfortunately dont bake it from scratch.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I never made pies before just because I never liked the crust (I know I am crazy) But I do love a good graham cracker crust. Could I get your recipe for your pumpkin pie? It sounds delicious!

    Thanks

    P.S. I got my yellow bathing suit at Costco in Carlsbad. It was a bit pricy but it was so worth it!

  38. OMG!! I LOVE this movie and have watched it over and over again... I always get teary-eyed at the end, too!! I love their accents and it's just sooo cute!!

    My fav. pie--- Mango/peach pie... I wish I had some right now, in fact....

    Next Fav. -- pecan pie... YUMMMY and VERY decadent! Only to be eaten once a year!

  39. I'm not very good at baking pies but I sure do like to eat them! Key Lime is my favorite. Yum. I think I just drooled a little bit.
