Pie

I'm not a huge pie person. I usually prefer chocolate cake. But I occasionally enjoy a good pie - key lime, peach or apple, maybe blueberry. Today, I had an absolutely fantastic double crust peach pie with a cinnamon, sugar icing dribbled over it. So amazingly good.

This pie came from a great little shop called A Slice of Pie. The first restaurant opened in Rolla, Mo., which is on the original Route 66. It's been covered in various blogs and magazines. There's a location in Jefferson City as well, which is where I checked it out.

I visited the shop yesterday for the first time after getting a rave review while yacking with my manicurist. She swore that it was beyond good. So I took myself to the shop and bought a whole pie to share with the office. We cut into it at lunch today and ate every bit.

A Slice of Pie also offers quiche and pot pies and if those are anywhere near as good as the pie, it's gonna be phenomenal. I'll let you know.
