i. made. this. pie.

THIS ONE. 

the one on the cover of bon appetit.  

lime and blackberry italian meringue pie. 

you can find the recipe here. 

doesn't it look delicious?  yep, it was a challenge, but i couldn't say no. 

plus, it was for a special occasion.  it definitely took some time, but it was totally worth it. 

here's my version: 

aren't you impressed?

beach for a lifetime

not too long ago, in pensacola ... 

 

p.s. don't let the pictures fools you.  yes, it was beautiful.  yes, there were moments of peace and quiet.  but in between collecting shells and paddle boarding, eleven girls reuniting filled one house with magic memories and laughs to shake the rafters.
