I'm partial to my faves. But this....

This gets my vote for possible new fave. You've perhaps an empty seat tomorrow?
Can we arrange orders for full pies via the Boneyard?? :)

Pumpkin pie works for my number 1, of course I don't get it that often. I do like a lot of other fruit pies.

I like pastry stuff - again, I don't get it regularly although a local Mexican bakery has some tasty items. Think Elephant Ears, angel wings, etc.

In a restaurant, I rarely get desert - but a Chocolate Molten Pie tempts me. Had a great one the other day.

Being a New Englander at heart I am almost certain it is Peach cobbler. Except when I am having a peach crisp. Hard to beat a great peach buckle, though. And a peach slump turns me upside down, until my next peach grunt. My sister's peach crumble is only rivalled by my other sister's peach pandowny. And good heavens do I remember when I had Peach Betty! Decisions, decisions.

I really can't think of anything better (to eat), but I saw pumpkin creme brûlée on a menu a couple days ago - hmmm.....

Man I know a fetish when I see one, and you got it bad for peaches. You wouldn't perhaps live in a peach house with peach colored walls, dress your children in peach with a peach tree in the back yard would you? It's an honest question.

It is not a usual desert, but an "Irish stew" would be nice.

Can't decide between blueberry pie and cheesecake. Or maybe two fingers of 18 year old Jameson with a dash of water.

With a large Italian family (both sets of grandparents off the boat) desserts after meals on the holidays are quite a spectacle. And there has to be enough, you see, to feed a small village. Therefore, without question, the Italian pies collection for Easter just have to be my favorite. Wheat pies, rice pies, cream pies, and ricotta pies line the central nave of the dinning tables flanked by 2 dessert dishes per person. That's bc you use one plate for your pie tastings and a second for the other smorgasbord of sweet concoctions hidden among the glorious cherry and latice-topped pies. Mmmmmm I like the ricotta the best:p

Best part is juding who made the best pie for the year as, of course, multiple family members must compete with one another serving their prized selection of pies for the feast.

I've never won:mad:
love ricotta pie

LOL!!! I must protest, my wife is a native Vermonter, I am a UVM graduate. For the life of me, I have NEVER seen any Vermonter eat apple pie with a knife!!! Although some Vermonter did tell me that if Vermont was flat out it's bigger than Texas!!!!

What about apple pie with cheddar cheese? May just be a Canadian thing.
