amazing warm from the oven. Enjoy with a cup of coffee!

That's my MOST favorite pie in the world! Nothing like fresh pecans to make it perfect, too! ♥
Your photos are wonderful! I LOOOOOVE pecan pie and haven't made one yet this year, because I'm afraid of eating it all by myself! =) Yours looks wonderful. Pinning it now. Found you at Foodie Friday.
