theelfqueen Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) Election Wednesday shall henceforth be pie day. I mean, it could be a celebratory pie or a consolation pie ... but I need a pie. I'm thinking maybe sweet potato or key lime. What kind of pie would you be wanting? I'm an American, so I automatically think sweet pie... but savory could work too... a lovely steak and Guinness pie could do the trick.

PrairieSong Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Chicken pot pie...maybe not technically pie but with biscuits on top, like a casserole. Does that count? Apple pie for dessert, but key lime sounds wonderful as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjffkj Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 dh's bourbon apple pie or cherry pie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loowit Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I would like apple dumplings, which is like pie, but not quite pie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Florida. Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) I'm not really a fan of pie, which is sad because everyone loves pie. The one pie I truly love is key lime, but it must be done right. And it absolutely better not be green! The only gooey fruit pie I like is blueberry because blueberry anything is to die for.

stephanier.1765 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I'm with you on the Key Lime. Best pie ever! But now that I'm vegan, apple pie is my go to comfort pie. I love the idea of Election Wednesday being henceforth known as pie day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familia Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I make a ham/gruyere pie that is full of savory goodness. And, I have the ingredients (well, I’ll use a different cheese, but I am just that type of cook=). Thanks @theelfqueen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theelfqueen Posted November 4, 2020 Author Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) Now that you say that... I think I have most of what I need to make a Shepherd's pie! Ok now that I'm halfway through making shepherd's pie I remember why I don't make it often... so much work!

*Jessica* Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Great idea! I have everything on hand for chicken pot pie, so I think I’ll make that for dinner. Maybe peach cobbler for dessert, because it’s kind of like pie without eating two dishes with pie crust on the same day. 😂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom2scouts Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Well, I just had a chicken pot pie for lunch, but I think a chocolate mousse pie or a Dutch apple pie for Election Wednesday would be good for either celebration and consolation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happi duck Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 If not for covid I'd be dashing out to buy a key lime pie! Instead I am obsessively drinking coffee, eating donuts and hitting refresh! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassia Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I'm also not a fan of pie. I do like cream pies with graham cracker crust or oreo crust. Eating pretzels and ice cream all day. No sleep and high anxiety. Blah... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 my Caribbean pineapple pie I can't make it anymore because I don't know where to find the extract/flavoring for it. I used to use a Watkins rum extract that was only 18% alcohol. All I can find now is much higher, and it doesn't taste the same. It had more of a butter rum candy flavor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for it in the freezer section at the grocery. Here's a link to see what they look like. Edited November 4, 2020 by klmama 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy101 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 We have always bought (or if funds were too tight, home made) donuts on voting days. We call it celebrating the sweet taste of freedom. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dh purchased said pie and the consuming is about to commence. I have had all of the news and election watching I can stand for the night. I now have both key lime and chocolate pies. I refuse to pick sides this early in the election tabulation so I will be consuming both. 🍋🥧 🍫🥧 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
