Hmm.. nope. Can the mods, uh, modify the intro to this question?
the site is unquestionably bad, and maybe even harmful in a trojan or other malware kind of way. i of course went to it, because the question was intriguing and i was curious, and now i'm worried i've downloaded something, or worse, the site used some kind of csrf thingie on my facebook. there should be some kind of additional caveat in the intro text other than that its "creepy."

It's pretty rare that we'd make an edit like this, but, yeah, I went ahead and added an explicit note above the fold.

My most persistent recurring dream involves me at a pie counter. I get to eat all the kinds of pie--which are very good--except the cream pies (yuck). Then a stranger comes in and tries to order the last slice of lemon meringue, the only kind I have yet to try because I'm saving it for last.
The dream varies from here: sometimes we argue a bit, sometimes I appeal to the server for justice, etc.
But I always get the last piece of lemon meringue pie.

Ooh! My mom's pumpkin pie, which is the one off the Libby can, but with twice the spices, and a layer of cheesecake underneath.
For each pie, hand-beat one package of cream cheese with two eggs, sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Fill the piecrust halfway with cheesecake, then a layer of punpkin on top, bake as usual.

I just made lemon meringue pie for the first time, for my peanut's 13th birthday (teenagers are so demanding!).
FYI store-bought pie crusts use lard (ewww). Also FYI, individual lemon meringue pies (some with crusts and some without) are just as easy to make as the standard 8-slicer, and much more fun to eat at a birthday party. Like cupcakes. Golden-topped meringuey lemony cupcakes.

Beaten to the punch by a BitterOldPunk!
That tourtiere recipe will get you started, but after you bake a few, you will end up tweaking the recipe to your liking.
* You can stay with a 2:1 ratio of lean pork to lean beef, but equal amounts work, too. You can also go for fattier meat if lean isn't around. For God's sake, you're eating pastry. Don't bother adding ground veal (one of the traditional trinity of meats) because modern veal resembles wet kleenex.
* You can add more sweet spices. Proceed cautiously with the cloves, otherwise your pie will taste like a toothache. Do add cinnamon, ground ginger (or, hey, grated or crushed fresh ginger) and NUTMEG. I usually throw in some cardamom and some ground star anise (not regular anise) because I always have some around.
* I'd recommend cooking the meat, onions and spices together on gentle heat, stirring often, using beef broth instead of water, adding it bit by bit as needed. To encourage the filling to get the right cohesive texture, add in some cooked, well-mashed potato after you add the liquid and keep stirring. One medium potato is plenty for one pie. Taste and adjust the spicing as needed.
32 days to Christmas baking and counting ...

I have a strained relationship with Pie. I see it on the holidays, make nice, and try to pretend like everything's cool, but we keep our distance. When Pie is in an apple or cherry mood, I graciously stand back, letting Pie act the belle of the ball, but I just know that I really can't stand it when Pie is acting like that. When Pie feels like being a little more Key Lime, I'm more game to take notice, but I still come away unenthused.
When Pie get's into a Pumpkin kind of mood, though, I jump all over Pie, and jealously too, all acting to alpha male to keep everyone else's hands away from my precious Pie. Pie, how could I have forsaken you all of those times. It's worth all the rest just to have you as Pumpkin. Please, baby, please.
I think Pie know's it's not working out between us, but Pie keeps coming back acting all pumpkin-y and I just can't resist.
One of us is going to have to break on this, sooner or later. I just know it. Something's gotta give here.

Preach it, dame!
I have never liked cheesecake. Not once, not ever... even though periodically I test it out to see if my palate has changed enough to like it, but no... phlegm with a soupçon of phlegm is how it tastes to me every single time.
Even though I have never liked it my mother will often try to serve it to me. Such are the vagaries of life. Can't blame her, she's a busy woman and all that.

All you cheesecake-hatin' people can just pass your pieces on over here. If someday, some kind of pie is invented that I hate, and you like it, you can have mine.

I had a slice of beetroot cheesecake in August 2001 that I still think about sometimes, it was so perfect. Yes, beetroot.
