MY BIRTHDAY PIE....KEY LIME

Today is my Birthday and this is my Favorite PIE! I have been a Forever fan of Key Lime martinis. My mom went to a get together with her friends several years back and had the most amazing Key Lime pie so she decided to surprise me with it one year for my birthday! Well, can I tell you it’s probably the pie and dessert that I look forward to most each year! It is now a tradition. You guys, I have had a lot of pies, but I have never had a Key Lime pie as good as my mom’s! We think that it is the Nellie and Joe’s lime juice, which is like no other, as well as the sweetened condensed milk. If you like Key lime pie, this is a must! And the simplicity and ease of making it cannot be beat!

Throwback Cheers with my favorite Martini!
