That is LMP's great weakness. Meringue that moist does not travel; make it onsite. Even a car trip across town can make the meringue get a bit goopy. It's nice how the first thing it soaks is the graham cracker crust, but if it gets on the upholstery, uh oh.

And it's kind of expensive mailing those heavy little cans of condensed milk, too.

I haven't either, despite their several species and wide distribution throughout North America and parts of Europe.

Huckleberries, bilberries, whortleberries

I am a cherry lattice pie.

(You are all welcome to weigh in on what type of pie you are, but I will let you know what kind I am. Just sayin'.)

I LOVE cherry lattice pie!

I am blueberry with cheddar on top. I like it gluey.

pic 01 -- Red Huckleberries (early in the camping season and high on the bush. later and lower they're gone... just ... gone.) Tart and beautiful, translucent, luminous coral colored fruit, they are delicious.

pic 02 -- Blue Huckleberries (far rarer, just as delicious but not as sublimely beautiful). There is a pair of red huckleberries in the background.

Pizza pie, with mushrooms and pepperoni.
And a Dr. Pepper.

Like a mixed berry.
BigV is right...a bit tart but really good. I found out you can get huckleberry syrup in this neighborhood.

So ... how long do you reckon Pie is going to be able to keep this up? Just how many kinds of pie are there? I await eagerly...

Rhubarb lattice. No strawberries in the mix; they dilute the rhubarb.

Tomorrow, rhubarb custard. For rhubarb plays well with custard.

Yesterday: A blackberry slump. (It got dropped on the floor, but was salvageable.)

Today: Tart Tatin
