My grandmother's Key Lime Pie, from fresh key limes grown in her own yard. She's been gone a long time, but I remember it as if it were yesterday.

I love maraschino cherries. The prettiest garnish I've seen was an apple slice with a cherry in the middle of it. Worked with an appletini.

TORTIERE! It is an amazing French-Canadian Meat Pie and my mother makes it every Christmas Eve! It simmers ground beef, veal and lamb together for hours with spices and fills a buttery double pie crust and is baked to perfection! OMG!

The most memorable pie for me would probably have to be when I first got to have a piece of chocolate cream pie at Thanksgiving. I had been allergic to dairy and finally outgrew it. I was thrilled to get to finally get to try it!

Fried Apricot Pie at Pat's Barbeque in Fort Worth. Back when I was in high school a certain group of us from the nearby neighborhood used to hang out there after school and on weekends. Barbecue bologna sandwiches and fried pies were our staples along with the fountain-made cokes and 7-Up's to which you could get vanilla or cherry syrup added. But the apricot fried pie was the most delicious pie I have ever eaten...the crisp pie crust was tender and not greasy and was overloaded with pure mashed redolent apricots...that is all you could taste along with the subtle unctiousness of butter. I have never tasted a pie purer in flavor since.

The most memorable pie I ate was an apple pie in Oak Glen, California at the pick-your-own fruit orchards there that was piled high with delicious fruit.

The Key Lime Pie at the Colonial House at Busch Gardens in Florida. They have the BEST and I've tasted a lot of these everywhere I travel. This one was creamier and yummier. I need their recipe.
