Guest Post: Raspberry & Blueberry Pie

Hello Enchanted Pixie readers! I'm Michelle and I blog over at The Momma Bird. I write about life, parenting toddlers, being a military spouse, traveling Europe, and most recently I started up a little vlog to keep the mood nice and light.

When Polly asked me to guest post for her I was so excited! It's not very often you come across Brit bloggers. So I'm very happy that she asked me. You see, I'm an American living in England. My husband is military so we're here for a few years. Can I just say that I absolutely adore England?! :) Well, I won't keep you. Here is a yummy recipe for you to drool over.

  1. I never thought of using two different and contrasting berries in a pie: that looks stunning!  Thank you for sharing with us!
