Another year, another Pi(e) Day, and that just means another pie here at FAF. Of course, this is not your average pie, because somehow I fell into a “tradition” of no bake pies for Pi(e) Day. And I am totally a-ok with that, because no bake pies are a favorite around here, among my readers…
Pies & Tarts
No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pie
Let the record state that I am a pretty big science nerd (some of you who have been around these parts for awhile already knew this about me). I work full time in an immunology lab where I make secondary antibodies for people who do microbiology research. I spend all day in a lab in…
Chocolate Raspberry Goat Cheese Cheesecakes (For 2!)
I’m sorry, can I just pause for one second and take a moment to point out anything that begins with drippy chocolate syrup has got to be fantastic? Don’t say you don’t agree!! Today’s recipe is brought to you by this whole month of loveeeeee. Ok, not really. It’s actually brought to you by my friends at Sincerely, Brigitte. I…
No Bake Candy Cane Crunch Pie
Woahhhh! Thanksgiving week? Anyone else just get used to writing 2016? Goodness gracious, this year is flying, and I can’t believe I’ve already worked with candy canes and peppermint extract more than once in the past few weeks. What is this life?? I have been non-stop cookie baking for the last 2 months, but here…
Classic Pumpkin Pie

I was just reminded (thanks to…
No Bake Mint Chocolate Chip Pie
It’s Pi Day! It’s Pi Day! Hoorayyyy for Pi! In case you aren’t a big science nerd like I am, you might not be aware that today is Pi Day, or perhaps you do know, but you just don’t get excited about it like we science nerds do. That’s totally ok, because no matter how…
Pecan Pie Tarts
Welcome to day #7 of my cookie party! How are you doing? Have you made any yet? Do you think I’m just really crazy? It’s ok, you can. I’m a little over halfway done with my cookie recipes. There’s no turning back from crazy cookie town now! I’m kicking off the third week of my…
My Favorite Homemade Pie Crust
I’m warning you right now… This is going to be a long post. I feel very passionately about pie crust. Which is slightly ironic since I have zero pie recipes on my blog (so far– I promise I’ll get to one eventually) unless you count the adorable apple hand pies I posted a few weeks ago. The reason for lack of…
