Spring Break

After my very last final, marking the commencement of my undergraduate college education, Jimmy and I were able to have a little day-date in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood. Jimmy isn't the biggest fan of this locale, but I am in love with all of the three-and-a-half blocks that are Georgetown. The Corson Buildling (one of Seattle's dreamiest restaurants), All City Coffee, Smarty Pants, and kitschy antique shops-- what's not to love?! 

Cherry Pie

I have never been a fan of cherry pie. To me, cherry pie always seemed too sweet and syrupy. I made this one, upon request, and discovered that I have been eating the wrong kind of cherry pie! Fresh cherries are rather scarce, this time of year, so I used frozen, pitted pie cherries. The filling tasted fantastic-- it was tangy, citrus-y, sour and sooooo good! This pie surprised me in the most pleasant of ways. Definitely will be making this again, during the Summer months!
