pie!

We love pie. You know that. It’s a major theme for our wedding, for goodness sake!
So when we heard there was a new pie shop open in our neck of the woods, we had to swing by and check it out.
The place is calledthe Pie Shack, and it’s a cosy little beachy spot with lovely communal harvest tables, and a doghouse outside for the requisite, resident puppy.
But more importantly, the pies! Oh the pies!

They are indescribably good – buttery and impossibly flakey – I have a sneaking suspicion that the pie dough is not exactly regulation. A sign mentions that those with nut allergies might be wary, as there is almond in the crust, but I feel the secret is that it is more akin to puff pastry, or a croissant. Imagine: layer, after buttery layer of flakey delight!
I got a slice of apple pie, and there was an option for cheddar, so I took it. Because if there’s one thing I love more than pie it’s cheese, and if there’s one thing I love more than cheese, it’s pie served with a side of cheese, and the only thing better than that, is when the cheese is MELTED ON TOP OF THE PIE… DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL…
Yeah. It was good stuff.

Haha, yes! You should come for pie sometime!
But it’s “I want to go TO there.” The “to” is very important (do you watch 30 Rock? You soooo should!).
