Matt is not much of a cake guy, so he requested pie. Being the loving wife that I am I agreed to give it a shot. Matt gave me a cookbook titled, "Sweety Pies" for Christmas, so finding a good recipe wasn't a problem. The problem would be if it came out looking nothing like the picture in the book. I figured worse case scenario if it didn't work out there was always Marie Callendar's. I am happy to report that it DID work out. I made my first ever strawberry-rhubarb pie, with a homemade crust to boot. No back up plan necessary. Matt has even requested I make it again. Definitely a good sign.

Doesn't t feel good to please your man like that. By the way, great looking pie!
I made Steve a baskin-robbins style ice cream cake for his b-day this year. It was a big hit.
Happy Birthday Matt! Great job on the pie, You are the betty I always knew you were going to be.
