I made a cherry pie this afternoon.

[BibleReader2231]

Just wanted to share a picture of the cherry pie I made today with you all. I’m currently letting it cool off on the windowsill. I haven’t told my Pa yet. It’s a surprise for after dinner. Any criticism or advice on how to improve this would be greatly appreciated.

Is every lattice evenly spaced? Are all squares formed the same dimensions? Will each piece of the pie remove easily from the pan without mess on the fingers?

Oh, that pie looks positively mouth-watering. I sure do wish I could get me a slice.

Say, do you know any recipes for cream pies? They're soooooo good!

While I don't mean to be bursting any bubbles or crashing any parties here, I feel like it's fair to let you all know that this... isn't her pie.You can find it here used as an image reference;

Don't take images off the internet! I bet any pie you make yourself would be just as good, even if not perfect!

Ms. Fuzzy, I realize you're new here, but I'm sure Sister Maxine is above reproach even if she isn't a . Perhaps Taste of Home used her photo - did you ever think of that? No, you didn't.


Cherry pies are nice, but I'm not sure if you want to give it to your Papa. They should be saved to give your future husband. Say, what ever happened to that man you married? Did you give him a cherry pie or is it still untouched?

I’ve tried to google cream pie recipes before but my parental block my Pa has on my computer won’t display any results.

Re: I made a cherry pie this afternoon.

While I do like to assume the best of others, I'm afraid I have to dispute that claim, Dana!If you check the website, through context clues given from the date stamps of reviews on the particular recipe, this image has been on the internet since as early as September 16th, 2009. I'm afraid I don't think Maxine would've been sharing her newest baked goods on the internet at the age of..... 7?

^fake news. It’s odd that this would only surface AFTER I post a picture of my fresh pie I made. I don’t appreciate slander. I’ll be telling my Pa immediately. Why should anyone believe you when you go around lying about being a giant dog?

Pay her no attention, Maxine. People on the internet who claim to be "nice" (awful word!) and say hippy-dippy things about believing in kindness are invariably foul people.

Tell me, though, where exactly do you live if cherries are still in season? I thought they were pretty much unavailable this late in the year, so if you have a good source of fresh American cherries then I'd love to know where I can get some.

Well, that's just the natural progression of... everything? Why in the world would I search the internet for a pie I didn't know anyone would be making? Besides, isn't it bad to lie?
Either way, my intentions for calling you out aren't malicious or slanderous, I simply want to encourage you to embrace your own work, instead of passing off the work of others as your own. I believe you could make a lovely pie regardless!

Why in the world would any sane person see Maxine's photo and then search the internet for a photo similar to hers?

Re: I made a cherry pie this afternoon.

Well, that's because it's quite easy! It's a few simple clicks since you can image search on google nowadays. Besides, didn't it look a little suspicious to anyone else?

No, no more fresh cherries, which makes me sad because it is pretty much my favorite fruit!

However, if you look closely at the opening post, she doesn't claim to have used fresh cherries. Maybe she used the canned variety (eww!) or maybe she froze some fresh pitted cherries when they were still in season?

I went to one of these u-pick farms and gathered loads of blueberries, they occupy half of my freezer, so I can bake a blueberry pie anytime!

I know, Sister. The mind boggles.

Re: I made a cherry pie this afternoon.

It's not irrational, it's just the matter that the image Maxine had sent seemed way too... corporate and unorganic, y'know? your picture is clearly your own, Basillissa! You even have something written in blueberries on the counter, that's pretty good proof of an original image.

That pie looks delicious, Miss Levantine, no matter what a certain mocker and scoffer has to say. I sure hope it wasn't snatched off the windowsill by a no-count darkie before your father had a chance to enjoy it!
