Aly and I engaged in an interesting conversation about home cooked meals recently.
We reminisced about the savory mushroom pie from the previous night’s dinner, and gleefully anticipated its leftovers for lunch.
We compared and contrasted the appeal of savory pie over casserole. We admitted that a savory pie is really nothing more than a casserole with a crust. But to me, at least, a pie sounds much better than a casserole.
Aly asked a few pertinent questions about my upbringing: “were pot pies special in your family?” and “did you eat a lot of casseroles as a kid?”
