Pie

Today was the third semiannual Great Livejournal Pie-Off. I entered a Lattice Twiglet Beef and Caramelised Sweet Potato Upside-Down Pie, with which I was lucky enough to win three awards: Best True Savoury Pie, Best Pastry (for the third time running, albeit jointly with [livejournal.com profile] billyabbott, to whom major props are due for his successful hot-water crust) and the coveted Best In Show award, with which comes the debatable pleasure of hosting the next event. So it'll be back to mine again for Pie-Off IV: Name To Be Determined, some time around August. Some awards (notably the Steve Irwin/Nikolai Tesla Award for Pie Innovation, won by [livejournal.com profile] susannahf) slipped through my grasp, so I will obviously have to try harder if Total Pie Domination is to be mine...

I have created the [livejournal.com profile] pieoff community to serve the growing pie-obsessed horde, and I shall be posting some polls there (if I can) to help plan the next event, so sign on up. I shall post my pastry and pie recipes there shortly.
