What’s this? Two posts? In the same WEEK? Wow – it’s been quite a long time since I’ve done that :) But all the friendly WELCOME BACK messages really warmed my heart, so, well, here I am again :)
If you’ve followed my site for any length of time or read back thru the archives, you’ll know this is not the first time I’ve posted sugar cookie bars. What can I say… they’re pretty darn easy, super tasty and rather different. I mean, yeah, you can buy slice-n-bake sugar cookies, you can go to the market and buy pre-made sugar cookies but cookie BARS are a nifty lil update on an old classic. And oh, did I mention they’re super tasty, too!!!

It’s Pi-day (March 14 = 3/14 = 3.14 = Pi) so I couldn’t possibly let this day go by without posting a, yeah, you guessed it, Pie! It’s been quite a while since I baked and posted anything but I wanted to honor one of my favorite days of the year. I’ve made a lot of pies in my day but to be honest, making a good pie crust has always been difficult for me. At least it was difficult until I came across Mike’s recipe for pie crust. This baby has not failed me once and I continue to make it again and again… and again. It’s absolutely my go-to recipe when I need a pie crust. And the filling? How can you go wrong with brown sugar, apples and a delectable crumb topping!
Yes indeed – have a happy Pi day… March 14… and be sure to help yourself to some pie :)
