White Chocolate Fudge Pie
You would think I would be over pies. It is true that after writing Everything Pie (due out in September and available for pre-order at the link to your right) I would never want to bake another pie again. For a while that was true, but after a few pie-free months I noticed that I did not feel the same instant aversion to pie as I had. In fact, last week I actually had a craving for pie. Specifically one made with white chocolate...

She has a write up of the event on her blog, which you can check out here, and aside from a whole lot of good food, there was a whole lot of fantastic company. We discussed food, blogging, photography, and life in general. It was wonderful to connect with other local bloggers and learn about their...
