Just off the Continental Divide Trail and nearing the Arizona border is the interestingly named Pie Town, NM. The small town consists of a community who wears many hats and may serve on the council and fire department while running a business. The "Pie Lady" welcomed me in to her warm establishment at 8am and beckoned me to choose from the case. Prepared were blueberry, apple, pinõn nut and green chili and blackberry pie. I chose a good old fashioned slice of apple and she sent it back to be made while pouring another cup of coffee. Seating was family style and I enjoyed chatting with a couple from Gillette, WY heading down to Phoenix in their RV. The pie soon came out and was indeed phenomenal. The whole piece filled me up and was of the finest ingredients (local apples, love and lard!) If you're ever on the Divide and need a slice of pie, head on over and see the Pie Lady.
