Pie Mess

Ooops.

I was talking to Darren last night and he mentioned that he had just bought some rhubarb to make a pie. I got inspired – although not enough to bother going out to look for rhubarb.  I figured the frozen berries in my freezer were good enough.

The problem with frozen fruit is it’s too wet – even though I partially thawed and drained it.  Actually, that’s not even why.  I always boil my pies over, even with fresh fruit.  I overload the pans, because I like my pies all plump and heaped up, and not flat after the filling cooks down.

The pie looks great!  The oven, not so much.
