Now I just need to decide what I should make it in it first. I'm leaning towards a fruit tart.
I do think it is a bit of a shame that I didn't get to make pie while in Maine. My little brother's desperately wanted me too, but unfortunately there weren't enough blueberries left from when they went berry picking. That and I was too busy enjoying ice cream. There is no where in the city to get ice cream as good as any of the three places you can walk to from my house in Maine. I hear there might be good ice cream in Brooklyn, but ice cream shouldn't be something you have to plan out in advance. I had Cookies and Cream, Blueberry, Peppermint, and Peanut Butter ice cream. I wonder if you could make ice cream with chunks of pie crust and berries.
In other news about a week ago I was tipped off to someone blogging about making a pie a day. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of butter that would take.
And lastly, the food porn alone makes Julie and Julia worth seeing. There's nothing like sitting in the fifth row of the movie theater staring as scene after scene of tasty concoctions go by.
Tillamook, a dairy out here in the pacific northwest, makes a marionberry pie ice cream with bits of pie crust in. It's wonderful, and really makes their marionberry without the pie crust ice cream obsolete.
ReplyDeleteI had to go look up what a marionberry was. Now I want. Want Pie Ice Cream Now.
