i just had my first slice of pecan pie a few weeks ago and holy moly, that's good stuff.
it was just one of those things that pecan pie and i never really crossed paths, and when it did, well, there was always another more tempting pie available. also, nuts on a pie? just seemed kinda weird.
but my first taste was heaven. the nuts were a perfect match both in taste and texture to the crust and "custard" underneath. they added just the right bite as well as another flavour dimension to go with the rest of the otherwise too sweet pie.
peekins, pee-cans, peh-cons, puh-cans, or puh- cons; i'll whistle dixie all day long for a slice of that pie.
