Plum pie,



Last weekend I took bit time for baking since I had got some nice and beautiful plums and  I could not eat them all, so, instead let them go bad I decided to bake a pie. Had never done one of those before, so, it was time to challenge myself bit ;)
As I also was promise recipe, when I must admit, reason, why it comes first now is easy - time just flies and have not had much time before. So, today evening I decided to take bit time for myself from studies and do other thins as well, what is needed to do ;)



Here is recipe for plum pie as promised!
