Excuse me while I eat some pie

One of the best parts about the arrival of fall and cooler weather,
is that I get my oven back!
No it didn't go anywhere, but in the summer heat, I try to steer clear of the oven.
But when the temp drops, the oven is the first thing I turn to come dinner time (or dessert time!)

So, of course the first thing I wanted to do was bake a pie!
I love pie.
Just about every kind.
But one that ranks verrry high on my list is Pecan.
I have never ever made a pecan pie before, so I was really nervous.
Just looking at them, the look kinda tricky.
Turns out they're pretty simple!
At the least the recipe I found.

It ended up being a perfect Fall treat, served warm with vanilla ice cream.
D-licious.




I just love the way baking makes your house smell, and it warms everything up!
Next on my list is to conquer an apple pie.
Unfortunately it's the Mr's favorite.
I say unfortunately becuase it's just about THE hardest pie to make.
Apple pie lover's are picky!

I would agree that Pecan pies are about the easiest to make, but not one of my favs at all! I'm with your hubby and love apple pie, but I think they are really easy (especially when you have the apple corer, peeler thing that sits on your counter)!
