My friend Mary is an expert pie maker. She baked two of them for us while we were at Lake Butler — a no-cook berry pie, which tastes like a classic French tarte, and a blueberry-peach pie, pictured above.

Graciously she sent us off on the road with the remains of the blueberry-peach pie, which was my breakfast of choice well into our New Orleans stay.

It was sad to see the last of it going:
