Viv, I love that: the fellowship of the pie vs. the sanctity of the pie pan. Perfect. Yes, the pans do scratch with age and much use, but that doesn't detract from their baking quality. They just get that "well-loved" look. I could have chosen to use a brand new pan without scratches for the photos, but hey — truth in advertising. The pans shown are 7-8 years old, get lots of hard use, and are still going strong. If I grabbed a nylon/plastic knife every time to cut and serve the slices, they'd still be perfect to this day; I'm just not that organized! Thanks for connecting here — PJH@KAF
