Jar pies

Eryn spotted this awesome recipe on the Internet and passed it along. As soon as I saw it, I knew I'd be making these single-serving pies in jars!

Brad is a pie fiend and wanted me to buy supplies ASAP!
I washed the new jars and set out all the ingredients, and we spent Saturday morning making the cutest little pies you've ever seen.

Basically, you make any pie crust and then take little bits and push it into the clean jars. Then you take whatever filling you want and load them up.

We made blueberry, strawberry rhubarb and cherry rhubarb with farm-fresh produce.
Then you top with more crust or a crumb topping. Brad prefers crumb, so that's what we did.
All but one went into the freezer for future baking. That one went into the toaster oven and into Brad's tummy.

He said it was very good and very fun. He did think there was too much crust and said we should make it really thin in the future. Good to know.
