off, the pie is golden brown, the bubbly fruit filling sends an enticing scent sneaking through the house into every room. People drift into the kitchen and ask, “is it ready yet?” The hour or two waiting for the pie to cool enough to serve seems like a lifetime, but eventually the pie does cool. I brew up a pot of coffee, and everyone sips on it, anticipating the flakey warm pie to come. Before we know it, we are all sitting at the table sharing hot coffee, funny stories, and warm pieces of pie topped with a scoop of cold vanilla ice cream. No matter what is going on in the world, for that window of time, we are happy.

Lovely description! I could smell the pie baking and the coffee brewing. I want to be at the table and listen to all of the stories that friends share.
