When I was a kid, I would eat pumpkin pie, but not squash pie. Somehow Mom always made pumpkin pie even when she had squash and no pumpkin.
Now I prefer squash pie to pumpkin pie.

Sweet potato pie. the grandmother I didn't like (cause she didn't like me) was the only person I knew that could fix it the way I liked. Others have tried over the years (including my lovely wife, but don't tell her I said this) but its never quite as good. Wife's is still good, it just ain't what I remember.

Oh, and while I love raw lemons and limes, lemon pie and key lime pie suck. They just do. Very flat with very little taste to my way of thinking. But then, I love eating them raw, which is much more intense.

My mom used to make a lemon merengue cake. It was a chocolate sheet cake topped with the lemon and merengue. Although mom's merengue was always thin and would slide off. But the lemon and chocolate really goes well together.

On the pie vs. cake debate, I come down squarely on the side of cookies.

Cookies are not square. They are round (or at least should be)
