Can Me Have This: The Apple/Cherry Pie - AKA "THE SWEENEY TODD"

Not to steal the words of a wise woman named Mrs. Lovett but I have always wanted to open a pie shop.  I would of course, pay homage to this colorful character and call the shop "Mrs. Lovett's Pies".  Everything (well, almost everything) would have an element of red in it.  A peach pie infused with wild raspberries, an apple pie with dark cherries, strawberry/rhubarb would be a daily special, et.al.  Too dark?  Maybe.  But funny, I think. 


I made a apple cherry pie the other day that was 'to die for'.  (you didn't think I would leave that out, did you?).  The pie was perfect.  Very flaky crust, nice tart apples complimenting the sweet cherries.  More than that, it was chunky.  For those of you who are big "Sweeney Todd" enthusiasts as I am, you just did a collective groan.  You did, I heard it.


No recipes on this post.  Go bake a pie and make it red.  Make Mrs. Lovett proud.
