Smash those peaches!  Really.  Get the best ones, the tree-ripened ones, and smash a few to cook up as a glaze that will hold the remaining fresh, uncooked slices together in a crisp crust.  Oh!  So good.

It's got that tangy yet creamy thing going, highlighted by the gingersnap crust.  It's a nice change from most citrus pies.  And it won a blue ribbon at the state fair pie contest in the "Citrus" category!

This is a great pie to make for a crowd. Because you cook it in a 13x9 dish, it makes more than a traditional pie, is easy to cut into many pieces AND it tastes great!

Silky is right!  Light like a custard, yet sensuous with ginger and cinnamon.  Everyone who likes pumpkin pie and who has tried this version has said it's their favorite.  See for yourself!  Took a blue ribbon at the State Fair.

This is an "OMG, I can't believe how good this is!" pie.  Trust Lindsay.  She knows of what she speaks.

If you like pink, as in pink grapefruit, you'll love this one.  It's very much like the cocktail made with pink grapefruit juice and vodka, served with a rim of salt (like a margarita).  It's refreshing and different, perfect for a summer party.

This is like those chocolate minty cookies sold by neighborhood girls in the Spring...only more creamy and "adult." A decadent indulgence. (I challenge you to find one ingredient in here with any redeeming nutritional value. But what the heck.)

It's really good!  The chocolate adds a touch of elegance and flavor.  

Ah!  A beautiful, airy crown for a rich cream or lemon pie.  This version of meringue is less complicated than the Italian recipe and provides reliable results. 

Baker's sugar has a finer crystalline structure than regular sugar, so it dissolves more easily, which is good.  It's available at most grocery stores.
