"We have too many pie books....."

That's what Jeff says to me on occasion. My response is, "Sorry, I understand all those words, but not in the order you're using them." Here's a list of my (many) favorites. You'd think we had enough to look through....you would be wrong. I'm always checking more out from the library (a great resource) and then buying the ones I just can't live without....it's like I knew someday I'd need recipes for 60 different pies!

Who could live without these?

• Chez Panisse Desserts (Lindsey Revmolif Shere)

• Magpie (Holly Ricchiardi)

• The Perfect Pie (America's Test Kitchen)

• Pure Dessert and Bittersweet (both by Alice Medrich)

• The Book on Pie (Erin Jeanne McDowell)

• The Art of the Pie (Kate McDermott)

• Baking With Less Sugar (Joanne Chang)

• Pie - 300 Tried and True Recipes (Ken Haedrich)

(More books to come, no doubt)
