Slow Work Day Means Kitchen Time

Work was slow today, so rather than bill hours for work I wasn't doing, I spent time in the kitchen. Among other things, I made the above Eisenhower strawberry pie and some cinnamon rolls with the left-over pie crust. The pie tastes much better than it looks. I'm terrible at crimping pie crusts, but since this was only the third pie I've made, I can use the excuse that I need more practice. If you want to try it yourself, you can find the recipe here. The recipe is provided by the nice folks from whom we bought the berries. They have a very nice pick-your-own farm the next town over. We took the kids out Wednesday after work/daycare and had a merry old time. If you're in Central OH, stop by their place and pick some fresh berries. If you're farther afield, find your local berry farm and pick enough for your own pie!
