{ Every Thursday I’ll be featuring a pie from the new book Pie*ography,

another 4 star pie!  Truth be told, this was my first experience making and eating a sweet potato pie, but it most certainly will not be the last!!

It was so good

rustic and buttery sweet

this cast iron skillet I treasure, was a perfect fit for Vanessa’s pie

I pulled out my finest serving china, dainty and ladylike, and I loved it with the rustic cast iron skillet…a favorite wicker serving tray was my tip to the south and their hospitality…it was like I was having a group of my closest friends from Church over to enjoy this pie…while we caught up on eachother’s life

isn’t that what pie does?  I sure think so…it brings people together

this pie lasted for about 4 hours I think…eaten with fresh whipped cream and the pie still warm a bit from the oven…so good and super easy

thank you Venessa for coming into my kitchen and showing me a thing or two about sweet potato pie

xo + sweet blessings,
Anne Marie

by the way!  Jo Packham and I will be doing a giveaway here soon…..I will let you know the details soon!!

SO WHAT PIE ARE YOU?

  • Hi Anne Marie! I left a comment this morning when I linked up but I don’t see it. Am I lost in spam somewhere?
    Thanks for doing this. I ordered my book this morning and should get it next week. I’m really looking forward to it, I love this type of cookbook! :)

  • Gorgeous! And yes, pie connects us like no other dessert can!

  • Hi Anne Marie,
    I love sweet potato pie! Not only is it so-so-so good, but packed with so many nutrients that I feel so much less guilty about gorging myself on it : )
    many hugs,
    June
