I love pies - pretty much any kind will do. I am fascinated with "old" pies, especially those that my grandmother & her parents made in the Shenandoah Valley. While browsing around, I found this article on some old-fashioned sort of pies that I thought you might enjoy:

Regarding old-fashioned pies.....

We were at a restaurant last night and my husband decided to order dessert. He had decided on something (don't remember what), when he wondered aloud what "oatmeal pie" was.

I had completely forgotten about that type of pie! My Grandmother made it, and I hadn't had it for probably 25 years.

We ordered it, and it was as spectacular as I remember...like a warm half-done oatmeal cookie topped with ice cream!!
