Rosa's pie

This pie makes my heart sing for two reasons:
1. It is completely, ridiculously delicious.
2. It reminds me of the amazing months that my friend Rosa and I shared while she was here in New Haven for a semester.

Everyone should have a friend like Rosa.  And everyone should eat this pie.  I have to share it.  Its just too good not to. In fact, I suggest to go and make it, right this minute.  I'm going to.  And then email me, and we can talk more about how amazing Rosa and her pie are.
