You can eat pie any time of year, but fall is really pie season for me. It’s the time of year when apple pie seems to taste its very best and when hearty chicken pot pies are the perfect comfort food. Pies are tasty whatever filling you pile inside, and they can be fun to make and serve, as well. A new pan from Chicago Metallic that makes four individually sized pies caught my eye and so I’m giving away a Chicago Metallic Individual Pie Mold Pan – also known as a pot pie pan – to one lucky reader!

September 17, 2011Last summer my job was running a farmers market pie table. I was in charge of making the weekly pies, packaging them, and selling them at the market (including giving out samples). During this time my love for pie deepened, especially because all of the pies were incredibly delicious, I did lots of sampling just to be sure. My all time favorite was the blueberry, but the strawberry-pineapple-rhubarb was a close runner up. That little pot pie pan is so cute!
