PIEstory: Meet Tracey
A big ‘thank you’ to Tracey for sharing her heartwarming PIEstory with the Crave Pie community.
Crave Pie: What is your all time favorite pie flavor?
T.R.: Apple or your chocolate chess
CP: Are you a pie baker?
T.R.: No, I am not a cook nor a baker so I appreciate those that have this special skill/gift
CP: Is there a family member or friend in your life who was a pie baker?
T.R.: Yes, my beloved Memaw made the most awesome cherry pies. Sadly, she passed away in a tragic accident the week before my wedding and was buried in the dress she was going to wear. I still dream about her
CP: Tell us about your fondest memory of pie in your life.
T.R.: Your little pies got my husband and me through a difficult time in our lives. In December of 2013, he had both of his knees replaced at the SAME TIME (he’s tough-we are both retired police officers but this was rough on him and on me as his caregiver). He was sent to Glancy for rehabilitation. I would go to Crave Pie almost everyday and get little pies as our treat (hospital food you know!). Enjoying those pies together were the highlight of our day!
CP: Was there a favorite pie that was present at family gatherings?
T.R.: My Memaw’s cherry pie which my mother took over after her death
CP: Have you visited Crave Pie Studio?
T.R.: Many times while my husband was doing his rehab around the corner and many times since! The hardest part is making the decision on what to get!
