Shoofly Pie, Oh My


Last week, I mentioned a local pie shop I'd be paying a visit to. It's called Shoofly Pie Co., and they have just about every type of pie you can think of, both savory and sweet, including their namesake, a fluffy molasses-based pie.

On this visit, the husband and I opted for the apple crumble and the strawberry-rhubarb. I've decided pie is just about the most pleasant food you could eat. This Jack Handy quote comes to mind: "When you die, if you get a choice between going to regular heaven or pie heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick, but if it's not, mmm, boy."

    although cupcakes are indeed very tastey, pie is my favorite because it so very compatible with ice cream.

  12. Hahaha. We have a similar pie place here in Boston. Cherry pie is my absolute favorite. I would even pick it over chocolate most days. That says a lot! :D

  15. Finally, a Seattle blogger who actually lives in Seattle! The bloggers who live in Snohomish County and have Seattle in their blog titles are pathetic. I don't get over to West Seattle very often, but will check out the bakery when I do.
