Reunited in Olympia, WA, Stefin and Andrea waste no time recapping their summertime Pies & Prosecco live event. With a fun and enthusiastic group of novice and expert bakers, the duo had a blast making fresh blueberry pies, and sharing lots of learning and laughs. Thanks to the Little General store for use of their awesome event space, and to everyone who came out for a fun night! (And since the class sold out in minutes, stay tuned for more live events!)

Yes, it's September, but in the Northern Hemisphere, it's technically still summer for a few weeks. What better way to celebrate the end of the season than with a bounty of stonefruit desserts? First up is Smitten Kitchen's Classic Peach Pie. Andrea's a little anxious about blanching fresh peaches to remove their skins, but Stefin suggests an "X marks the spot" method. And speaking of methods, Andrea shares her tips on lattice crusts, while Stefin is thrilled with an old-fashioned pie shield trick from Andrea's mother that looks space-age, but couldn't be simpler.
