Paintrain-
Your anti-pie bias has been showing for some time now. See if you can't rein it in a little.
While I am partial to cake, I can always go for a slice of apple or sweet potato pie!

How bout Chicken Pot Pie?
If a flaky crust is all it takes to be a pie, then that's a pie.
I happen to think that a pie is so much more...

Pie is the food of the gods (except Mincemeat and Strawberry Rhubarb, of course).
Pecan, Pumpkin, Coconut Custard, Blueberry, Cherry, Key Lime, Lemon Merangue, Chocolate Cream, Apple. It's all good.
But for sure... it's all about the crust.
My all time fave was Chocolate Pecan Pie at Christiana Campbell's Tavern at Williamsburg.
It knocked me on my ass.

I've had Chocolate Pecan Pie! I'd like to amend my list.
Given the earlier mention of cheesecake, I'd like to talk about my greatest dessert experience. At a restaurant called 1776 outside of Rehoboth Beach, they have Cheesecake Bruleé - a piece of homemade cheesecake with a caramelized sugar crunchy glazing on it. My wife took a bite and I nearly divorced her.

Yup... if my wife tried that she'd pull back a stump.

It should come as no shock that I work with computers. We are a sedentary lot.
Matty - I can't say I've ever had Toll House pie. Tell me more.
Tastes like Toll House chocolate chip cookies, can't beat it when it's nice and warm

Is it a family recipe?
IF NOT THEN SHARE!
Our women need something to do on a Sunday morning anyway. :)

I probably just skipped right past it, but why has no one mentioned key lime pie?

Pie #5 on my list, TAFKAS. Key Lime is good, but it's not a three-slicer like apple, or the vastly under-rated Coconut Custard.
I think if you can't eat three pieces of a pie before shame takes over, it can't be on the top of the list.
