Pie: visual love (Pies by Kate Lebo)
Just a short post to show the photos I am submitting for the Cake Vs. Pie Photo Contest in Edible Seattle Magazine. I am sad I wasn't able to attend the fabulous event put together by Edible Seattle, Jenise Silva and Cake Spy Shop. But I was able to spend the afternoon with Poet and Pie Woman extraordinaire, Kate Lebo, to document her pie-making process. These five images are for the photo contest, but I shot a whole 2 gigabytes worth of pie-making goodness that I'll be posting very soon.
The pies you will see here are: Spicy Ginger-Peach Pie (the one Kate entered in Cake Vs. Pie) and Fresh Fruit and Mascarpone Almond Crust Pie (gluten-free). Pie making is art. No question about it. It can require different techniques and dynamic depending on the pie being made. I was able to see that when Kate made these two beauties yesterday. And even got to bring home a Slice of Heaven.
Enjoy!
(Update: Kate won "Best in Show" with this pie. Read her impressions about it and get the recipe here. Congratulations, Kate!)
