Take a bite of pie, and wash it down with some tasty shake!

In the southern U.S., as well as most of the lower hemisphere and places like Sudan and Malaysia (I’d imagine), even though it’s the same October as the rest of the world, it isn’t really the same fall. Not yet. And the only thing I have to say to my Instagram feed and all of ...

I spontaneously woke up at 4:30AM with an insurmountable craving for a Shari's pie shake. I've got a blender, all that's standing in my way now is having the ingredients like ice cream, grahm crackers, and various flavor-specific bits. If you know me outside Tumblr, I'm adding this to the small list of recipies I know by heart. Hold onto your butts.

CHERRY PIE SHAKE: A WHAT? A WHAT?!?!

I love my best friend, but I think I might need to kill her for this one. Or at the very least, sue her for damages. 

In December, I went to visit her in the Bay Area. At one point during my visit, she "casually" brought up my pie blog AND the fact that she lived within walking distance of a diner, AND that they served pie shakes. I asked her what the hell a pie shake was and she told me that yes, it is exactly what it sounds like: Ice cream and pie, blended together, to form a drinkable sludge. I begrudgingly agreed to let her experiment on my stomach and palate.

Upon arrival at the diner, I desperately tried to talk my way out of a pie shake. I love diner food. I love greasy eggs and potatoes and toast and coffee. There's nothing better, in my opinion, and didn't want to mar that experience with something as terrible as PIE. 

But my FORMERLY best friend did not let me talk my way out of a pie milk shake. I stared at the menu as she ordered us each a "Sweet Montana Cherry Pie Shake" and looked at this girl on the menu and thought, I feel your pain. I mean, look at her. She's miserable. She's got a fucking hover hand around her pie shake: 

As we waited for our food, I started to hear a horrible noise, like a buzz saw cutting someone's arm off. It was raining out, so I thought maybe it was weather-related, but I was informed that it was the sound of a pie in a blender. Great.

Finally, a disgusting mess arrived at our table, and I was less than pleased:

A milkshake, the 3rd greatest drink on earth, combined with a pie, the very worst food on earth. It looked like a milkshake with bread in it. It had a giant straw so the bread/crust chunks could travel up the straw. Oh yeah, chunks. This pie was full of fucking frozen CRUST CHUNKS. It was chunky and cold. Nothing "chunk and cold" should ever go in my mouth, okay??!

On the plus side, because it was part milkshake, the fruit pie filling wasn't warm.... warm fruit in a pie is super gross. I mean, who decided fruit should go in pie? I'll kill them. Warm fruit is disgusting and anyone who disagrees with me is a satanist. Anyway, this pie was not warm, and it had the bonus of being part ice cream, so that was nice. It was also, oddly, not super sweet, which I appreciated. 

I would have rather, of course, been eating a slice of cake than DRINKING a fucking PIE, but it was bearable and did not cause anything horrible to happen to my insides. I drank about 1/8th of it before giving up.

Overall grade: 6.5/10. The pie milkshake gets points for only being half pie, but gets points off for still being pretty pie-esque.

This weekend was a gorgeous and summer-like weather.  The temps had risen to 90’s.  Scary that it’s that hot in October.  I am truly ready for the Fall Season to begin.  Either way we had an amazing day out at Sutro Baths in San Francisco.  The Sutro Baths were a large, privately owned swimming pool complex near Seal Beach,  it was built in the late 19th century.  We also wanted to visit home of the Full House TV show.  The we went to the Famous Chile Pies and Ice Cream shop from Unique Sweets show.  They are known for the Apple Chili Pie.  We were too afraid to try though.  Where we indulged in a Pie Shake.  I had Vanilla Bean and Blueberry Peach Pie.  The boys enjoyed Mexcican Choclate pie with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.   It was so yummy and unique!!
