October Pies

Banana Cream Pie

 This month we made a few pies. The first was a Banana Cream Pie. That's probably the one I make most often because it seems to be Ryan's favorite. We have a few different recipes and we've liked them all so far. The second was a Fresh Berry Pavlova. This is the first time I've made something like this. It was made with a meringue tart shell. This is a "light-as-air" pie named after the Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. It's filled with lemon flavored whipped cream and topped with raspberries. Ryan loved it. It was very good and very light and fluffy.

The third pie was a chicken pot pie we made for dinner one night. I made the pie, but Ryan decorated it with pastry leafs. He did a pretty nice job too. :) It was delicious!
