"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back IN!" - The Godfather Part III
I haven't posted anything on this blog since March. (Has anyone even noticed?) At the time, I kinda made a half-assed "grand-finale" post and then disappeared into obscurity for a while. To be honest, I basically just lost my blogging mojo.
But a few weeks ago, my friend Yinzerella sent out an email to my little circle of retro blogging pals (AKA The Jello Mafia) asking if anyone wanted to participate in a NEW Retro Blogging Challenge. This would be similar to the Knoxapocalypse or the Church Lady Cooking Challenge or the Vincent Price Cookalong. But this one would have a new theme: PIES. And it would be called PIEATHALON.

| Hellz. Yeah. |
So here I am. And not only will I be participating in the Cross-Blog Retro Pie-Baking Challenge on June 30th, but I have decided to devote the entire month of June to RETRO WW PIES!
So....Here's a quick walk down memory lane at some of the Retro WW Pies I have made over the years. (Click on the title above photo to visit the posts):

| Quite Possibly the Worst Pie EVER Made |
But there are oh-so-many-other Pies to be had. And I shall begin my Pie Extravaganza later this week.
In the meantime--please do tell, what is YOUR favorite pie?

I'm glad you're back!
I know it will sound awful, but my favorite pie is actually a chocolate tofu pie my mother-in-law makes. It tastes awesome because it is loaded with chocolate, sugar, and butter. The silken tofu just gives it a silky texture and lets us pretend it is not as bad for us as it clearly is.
Lately, my favorite pie is pecan pie made from a pre-corn syrup recipe put in a graham cracker crust. It leaves me feeling inexplicably happy for hours when I've had some.
Does homemade turkey pot pie count?
I am happy that you're back.
Pie for everyone!!!
It's always worth coming back from a blogging break if there's PIE involved. Unless it's that Frankenpie.
My current favorite is sweet potato pie, and I'm making a lot of versions to try to get the "best" recipe. (Enjoying the process immensely, too...)
