    I like pie. There's a local diner down the street that makes the best pie and even though we know it's name, H and I call it "Pie" because if we go there, we're getting pie. We've even asked to have some to take home when we've gone for breakfast.

    ^Agreed. My mom makes the BEST chocolate chip pie with graham cracker crust. Anyone want the recipe? because it is DIVINE. The filling is like Chess pie if you have ever heard of it but it has chocolate chips lining the bottom that are melty and gooey and wonderful...OMG mouth watering now

  • As promised:

    Mom's Chocolate Chip Pie

    1 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup flour
    3/4 stick melted margarine
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
    6 oz choc chips
    Frozen pie shell

    Mix sugar and flour together. Mix in remaining ingredients together. Pour
    all into pie shell.  Bake 35-40 minutes (at least) at 325 degrees.

    There you go!  Hope it turns out good.  Sometimes I have to cook it much
    longer though to get it done, so be sure to allocate extra time for it, and
    don't bump up the temperature to cook it faster!  ;-)

    Love you!
