Every dessert table at a BBQ deserves a pie (or 2 or 3). I thought I’d make a blueberry pie for our family BBQ over the weekend because it is appropriately colored to match the red, white and blue theme for the Independence Day holiday.  I don’t always go out of my way to be matchy-matchy with a holiday, but I knew that I wanted to make something easy and I knew that I wanted it be pie so the decision sort of presented itself.  Plus, blueberries are in season so that was the icing on the cake, er, pie. …

Guys, this pie is everything! This is probably the wrong time of the year to share a no-bake pie with you.  You know, because everyone wants those kinds of recipes in the summer time to avoid turning on the oven.  But think of it this way… if you make this pie now then you can use the oven time for all the other foods on your list, like cookies.  I’m always thinking.  😉 So first and foremost, this pie is ridiculously delicious.  I’m kind of obsessed with it because it’s so tasty.

I made this pie twice last month.  I wish that I could say it was done on purpose.  Twas’ the night before Christmas and I wanted to bring pie to my mother-in-law’s for dessert.  I diligently made it the day before so that it …
