My friend (Lisa!) made me this pie and brought it over after I gave birth…..and without being over dramatic, I’d like to say that this pie saved my life!! It tasted amazing!!! It was at once a delicate, creamy, tart and sweet treat….but also felt like something nutritious and life-rejuvenating. Hence, I felt like eating nothing but it for the first few days, and kept helping myself to a slice – after 3 am feedings, after dinner, and as mid-morning snacks. I was able to stretch the pie for the whole first week of my baby’s life, and have now vowed to make this for my friend who’s giving birth sometime this week. That’s why I was on here just now, learning how to make it myself, for someone else! I need to spread the joy! Amy, I LOVED this video, and can’t wait to check out the rest and learn each one…….. Thank you.
