We settled on the idea of hand pies. Strawberry hand pies.
I put them each in a convenient little sleeve and brought them to my mom's in cute, vintage boxes.

Pies
Chris' birthday is coming up and, as usual, we had a little family party. I asked him what kind of cake he wanted and he wasn't really sure he wanted a cake. I asked him if he wanted a pie and he wasn't really sure he wanted one of those either. But he did conclude he wanted some sort of birthday treat.

You belong in a magazine. Those look so delicious and the boxes and wrappers and all of it are just perfect. Yes, you belong in a magazine.
I love pie. I miss pie. I'm so glad you guys had pie :)
Happy Birthday, Chris!
Thanks :)
It's all in the presentation! :) Very lovely, Christy. I bet they tasted good, too.
Wonderful pics, yummy suprise! love, love, love the vintage boxes! :)
C, your pies are amazing looking. Wish I could've had one. Cherry, for our weekend away???
Here in New Orleans, there is a company called Hubigs that sells such hand pies and they are a time honored tradition. I'm certain yours outdid completely in taste and health factor. Recipe please?
Ha, C, that was me earlier! Sorry, I didn't realize Dwayne was logged in already!!
My Dear B,
We will feast on pies and coffee for our weekend! That's the best idea I've heard in forever :)
I'll give you the recipe if you want it, but I found them to be lacking in flavor (the cuteness makes up for a lot of that lack, though). Perhaps your hubby has a tip or two for me? The problem is that you can't fit that much filling into a hand pie while still leaving enough edge to seal it up tight.
