It’s the Pieathalon!!! I cannot believe that I’ve been coordinating this shindig for six whole years. Bravo to me. This year, my assignment comes from Peter over at Vincent Price Legacy UK.

Also like Vincent Price, Dali’s cookbook was published onlyContinue reading Pieathalon 6: Salvador Dali’s Oasis Leek Pie (1973)
IT’S THE PIEATHALON! Can you believe it’s been 5 years? I can’t. I really can’t.

Welcome to the Pieathalon! In the heavily debated war of Cake vs. Pie, I am definitely on Team Pie. Pies are so versatile. They can be fruity, creamy, sweet or savory–and if I’m not mistaken, isn’t pizza technically a pie? And quiche, too! Plus, I have that whole Bisquick Impossible Pie thing going on. AndContinue reading First Annual PIEATHALON: Seafoam Cantaloupe Pie
