First off, I'm going to apologize for the length of this post documenting our 2.5 hour pie making class. I just couldn't help myself. It was too dang fun!
Prairie Home Farm is described by its website as, "Nothing fancy, just farm. A five acre, 100 year old farm featuring pumpkins, fall produce and decorations. An old milking barn, all the farm implements, tools and old machinery imaginable, combined with Linda’s scattered vignettes, make for a perfect back drop for fall family photos ops. Throw in about 12 different kinds of farm animals in their pens, pastures and coops, and you’ve got a perfect autumn day steeped in good ol’ farm tradition.""LIL’ PUNKIN PIE CO. Is the farm's little off shoot featuring farm fresh fruit pies. Found in a repurposed outbuilding, lil’ punkin pie co. was born out of an over abundance of fruit on the farm and Linda’s insatiable passion for baking. All these little pieces contributed to a simple pie business plan- farmy, homemade, none too fancy, classic fruit pies using local ingredients with a very small carbon footprint print!"We learned of Linda's Farm Pie School while visiting her very popular booth at Coeur d'Alene's Wednesday Night Farmers Market. We were so IN! And what a gracious hostess she was.After ogling her darling décor, we headed outside for a farm tour.The scraps from the pie prep were hysterically fed to the eagerly awaiting farm creatures.This farm oozes cuteness and showcases Linda's great style.It was then back to the farmhouse for ten of us to learn all her pie secrets."Pie and Coffee is approximately the third best social interaction
a man can hope to have with a woman."
I have not seen a vat of Crisco since my Mom made pumpkin pies, decades ago. What a memory evoker.Apple pie... Oh my!For over two hours we were in the company of delightful people being taught by a delightful hostess. It was a fabulous date night. And we have two pies to eat tomorrow to confirm it all."We must have a pie.
Stress cannot exist in the presence of a pie."
