can she bake a cherry pie, billy boy?


"Can she make a cherry pie, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Can she make a cherry pie, Charming Billy?
She can make a cherry pie, quick as a cat can wink an eye,
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother." - (x)

On Saturday, I made a cherry lattice top pie for the first time. check: number 21 on this list. And it turned out really well, at least for the first time. I also made an apple pie and a pumpkin pie, but my pumpkin pie had a crack the size of the Grand Canyon in the middle.... okayyy, maybe that's stretching things a tiny bit. (note to self: next time let it cool down slowly.)

I think pie might be my favorite thing to bake, even if it takes more time and practice.
You can be so creative while still being traditional, and that's just cool.
