Can pie make the world a better place? The 'Pie Lady' tells why she traveled the world making pies and shares her favorite Thanksgiving pie recipe.
“Pie is in my DNA. My mom made my dad a banana cream pie when they were dating and that pie prompted him to propose to her; I was born because of pie! But it was when I quit a dot-com job at the height of the boom that my pie journey began in earnest. The more my bosses pushed to create virtual outdoor experiences, the more I craved a tactile experience that engaged my senses in the real world. I quit, proclaiming in my exit interview, ‘I want to do something with my hands, like make pie.
“The world is not as dangerous as the media makes it out to be. I signed up for the U.S. State Department’s travel alerts for each country I was traveling to and I kept getting emails warning Americans not to travel there. Lebanon was still a hotbed of unrest, Greece was in the midst of a financial crisis where tourists were purportedly getting mugged at ATMs, and Hungary was closing its borders to refugees in the biggest migrant crisis since WWII.
