Like ice cream, pie ingredients are simple and pure: fruit, flour, butter, eggs, and sugar. Berry pies can get runny and overly sweet, but you can balance the flavor and texture with tapioca (or crumble topping) and rhubarb. I owe a big thanks to Four and Twenty Blackbirds, from whom I learned all I know about pies.
It's best not to mess with a good thing. My pies turned out perfectly, but my hipstamatic photo made me wish I had stuck with my regular camera. You be the judge.
I would have photographed it again, but the pies disappeared shortly after they came out of the oven.
