I have no fear of crust but unfortunately no time to do a pie in the middle of the week. We are working our way through a batch of lemon macarons from last weekend.
We've got a very hectic day today so yesterday I made two pies: one chocolate pudding pie with fancy homemade chocolate pudding and store-bought everything else; and an Anne Byrn-inspired meatloaf pie that I baked in a cast-iron skillet and topped with mashed potatoes. They both turned out great! (in their own way)
I love to bake and, hopefully, create something good to eat. My mom loved desserts, especially pie. She used to tell me just to go out and buy one. But, her mom made the best pie crust and lemon pies. She perfected that one over many years.
Love your column — especially the ones with Bosco. My border collie Cooper is aways bottom feeding in my kitchen. The other day I set out the ingredients for a cake — ran to the other room for something and heard a clatter stupidly thinking Cooper hurt himself only to see him just finishing an entire stick of butter! I'm sure he and Bosco would high five!
Hi Marissa: My daughter makes loaves of bread from a no knead recipe and it's reasonably good, if not a bit too dense and hard crusted. She played with adding raisins to it for variety, but all the raisins migrated to the outside edges, where many of them burned into little black charcoal bumps. (-; ..Any ideas ?
Bosco is a cutie-pi. 😘. Thank you, Marissa !!! 🥰
Making a cherry crisp today. Not exactly a pie, but pretty close?
I adore you but you are killing my diet. Are there any good diet recipes?
I like my passion served cold, Marissa!
I ate a mini quiche for lunch on 3/14 and I guess that qualified for Pi Day. Didn't make anything, though.

Actually using sweet cherries and buckwheat groats and brown butter in the topping. Would love to share!
