Pie Pie Me Oh My!



Apple Pie



Yesterday was a beautiful day other than being in a 'tornado watch' from mid morning until 9pm. I decided to grab my camera and check out the fruit trees to see how they're doing.  To my surprise they are really doing well but after not producing any fruit last year because of a late freeze that killed all the blossoms the tree's are making up for it this season which is overloading some of the branches. The tree's are old and have never really been pruned so we lost a few branches from overload but if all goes well we should have enough fruit for us eat and preserve and share with the birds!

Oh my...if all goes well we'll be enjoying all these yummy  fruit treats.
Good thing I have a treadmill!

What kind of pie is your favorite?

These look yummy! Is it ok to eat pie for breakfast? :) My favorite in the summer is rhubarb pie, fall is pumpkin pie, but all year round I love apple pie. Love it.

You will have tons of fruit to eat and preserve! I like mixed berry pie best but apple is a close second!

Pumpkin and pie pumpkins will be in this years garden with hopefully good results. Your fruit trees look lovely, Maura, how fortunate you are and the birds too! : )

Be well ~Andrea~

Your pies look delicious!!! I love fruit pies!! How wonderful that you have so many fruit trees right there. My grandmother had a plum tree and she made jam every summer. To this day, plum jam is my very favorite.

I love all pie :) Your treats all look simply divine! Our grapes are going crazy this year again. Unfortunately I'm the only one here who eats grape jelly and I still have a stockpile from last year. Ideas?? :) Sounds like you will have a fruitalicious feast very soon! -Tammy

Maura,
Thanks so much for visiting my blogs. I absolutely love yours and the photos are wonderful! As far as the pie goes, strawberry-rhubarb and berry pies are my favorites!

There is nothing like a piece of warm cherry pie or apple with ice cream on top. It is o.k. to eat pie any time of the day according to my book. I usually get fruit and vegetables from my brother when I go to the farm. They can and freeze the fruit and vegetables, but still have enough to share. I enjoyed catching up reading your blog tonight. Have a great weekend.
