Can you believe that there are people in the world that prepare and freely gift delicious home fresh pies at least once a week? Oh, humanity! Mary’s been chronicling her pie adventures over at my 52 pies, and this week I was the fortunate beneficiary.  As if her friendship wasn’t enough, she hunted down an amazingly food-friendly recipe with me in mind and brought it to my doorstep while I was still in my pajamas. We had a most pleasant visit over breakfast while sharing stories and pie, and her timing couldn’t have been better.
