Weekend of Pies

The ideas I had for desserts over the long and good Memorial Day weekend didn't exactly come to fruition. But I did get a couple of pies made to go along with the Saturday and Monday night meals.

The first is key lime pie:

The second is that irresistible chocolate cream pie published to the Food Network website by Emeril Lagasse:

David Wald and I put the chocolate pie together and then he had the good sense to adorn it with some of the fresh-made whipped cream.
