Magnolia's Lemon Pie

The famous Magnolia Lemon Pie by Joanna Gaines is an easy dessert that takes 10 minutes to throw together.

I think I might have been the last person in this world to watch the show Fixer Upper with Chip and Joanna Gaines.

If you haven’t seen the show, run and watch it now and you’ll immediately fall in love with them. I happened to be on a really long flight and started binge watching their show.

Here’s why I love them. They’re genuine. I don’t think they feel like they have to put on a show, they’re just themselves.

Of course I gravitated to her easy Lemon Pie…which literally is done in under 20 minutes. My kind of pie.

And you know why I’m making pie, right? It’s almost Pi day. March 14th? 3.14? Did I lose you? 3.14 is the digital reading for March 14th and constant for the symbol Pi.
