I know we are in the middle of fall and I should be thinking of pumpkin pie, but I could only think of making a summery pie when I bought these gorgeous raspberries at the store. So to get in the mood for my summer redux, I put on one of my favorite movie soundtracks "Grease" and started singing "Summer Nights" while I whipped up this pie. Before long I was "Hopelessly Devoted" to this light and breezy pie. The flavors of raspberries and the lemon were just like the song "We Go Together". So as I snapped out of my summer fantasy and back into reality, I'm no longer singing "Look at Me I'm Sandra Dee". All I know is if I want to get back to my "Grease Lightening" day dreaming, all I have to do is open that fridge door and see my lovely little summery pie and sing "You're the One That I Want". Okay, I'm not crazy. I'm just a little "Grease" happy and "There are Worse Things I Could Do" and it's okay once in a "Blue Moon", right?. Okay... now I'll stop. I think I used enough of my favorite Grease songs in this post. LOL! : ) Now back to the pie... it's really good! : )
1 store bought graham cracker pie crust
2 cups of fresh raspberries
1 (8oz) cream cheese at room temperature
Juice of 1 lemon (less than 1/4 cup)
