High Five!

High Five Flipside


Pie is the perfect edible and one that I love. My favorite dessert. But Pie for lunch - absurd!

Well call me a convert- Burien Press, my favorite espresso/ coffee shop features little pie turnovers called flip sides from a local company called High Five pie company. They are tasty little treats, made from scratch. And not just for dessert! They have a Savory pie, with little potatoes, carrots, peas herbs. And my new favorite lunch pie- Mac and Cheese. Along with seasonal offerings like sweet potato, pumpkin and of course the best Carmel Pecan I have ever tasted. They also have something called "Pie Jars" a new take on Cake in a Jar- Something I might experiment with for Christmas.

UPDATE: Here are instructions from scoochmaroo@ Instructables for making your Pie in a Jar

Eat Local

I was at the Farmer's Market today, and one of my favorite vendors Eat Local, was there and she told me they are opening a store here in Burien! So now when localvores want some take out that's made from local and organic food, they don't have to wait for the Farmers' Market or go to Queen Anne Hill. Eat Local has an impressive menu of tasty things, from Coq au Vin to Buffalo Stew, and cookies to crackers that rival my beloved Ak-Mak. they are opening next month! Can't Wait.
