Goodbye Summer (pies)

As summer comes to a close, there was one last thing to be done. Ian's favorite pie is the nectarine blackberry pie out of the Sur La Table baking book. It was a stretch to make it, as all the wonderful nectarines and blackberries are on their last legs. They are not nearly as fragrant and delicious as they were earlier in the season. We made the trek to Whole Foods in the South Loop, and came back carrying a 40 lb bag of groceries, a small end table, a rug and our empty wallets. It was worth it. Ian and I had the last pie of the summer. Complete with vanilla ice cream of course.
