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 18, 2011I think I may have to go out on a limb and say pecan may be my favorite! This is tough though.. I’ve become a little bit allergic to pecans in the last few years so if I dare eat it these days I follow up with benadryl and go to bed early for a good hard sleep. Hah! the perfect winter sleeping cocktail huh?
