Hi Shawn,


RH> Other alternative is to cut it into slices, individually wrap and freeze
RH> them. Then, every time you want pie, pull out a slice and defrost it.

SH> That's a good idea.  I do have the sucky-bag machine after Dave kept
SH> talking about how handy they were.

I've had a number of those machines over the years, have some sausages
that Steve got at Costco the other day that needs bagging before going
into the freezer. Use the delicate (no suction) or whatever they call it
on your cheesecake; you don't want it to suck out all the air and squash
the cheesecake.


RH> I don't make it that often either, but just before I sat down to do
RH> mail, I mixed up the crust for a fresh strawberry pie. It's now chilling
RH> before being rolled out and baked, after baking I'll prep the berries
RH> and thickener while the crust cools.

SH> Yum.  Still a few weeks away from Stawberrys here I think.

We're moving into blueberry season in the next couple of weeks. The
crust didn't turn out that well but the pie was over all good. I think
next week I'll pull a small bag of rhubarb out of the freezer & make a
small strawberry/rhubarb pie to use up the strawberries on hand.
