pie











I got about a gallon and a half of apricots off my tree this year. not enough , but more than I expected after the wind and late freeze/snow this spring. Got two pies and three tarts, plus a couple good handfuls we ate right off the tree. the tarts went to my father for father's day, one pie to the husband for same and I am hording the other in the freezer. such intense apricot flavor!

Those pictures are wonderful, and I'll just bet the pie is amazing!

Beautiful work, both with the food, and the pictures...



I want some!

Hey, enjoy, OK?

We have a local chain of restaurants here that used to make a "harvest" pie with apricots and other fruits. It was soooooo good, but they don't make it anymore.

frozen pie got decent a few years ago - at least the crust, they still don't really have enough fruit, but

none of the "fresh" pies Safeway or other local stores carry are much good.
