Hey pie lovers,

It’s $5 Tuesday, which means you save $5 on every large pie and quiche you buy. Let’s talk about what that means for your wallet—and your wildest financial decisions.

What Can You Do With the $5 You Save?
Get a scone, a cookie, or a drink in our shop.

Buy TWO hand pies or hand quiches because they’re 2 for $5 today.

Add a giant coffee cake slice to your order.

What If You Buy 5 Pies?
You save $25—enough to buy ANOTHER PIE. That’s right, you just leveled up to Pie Collector status.

What If You Buy 20 Pies?
You save $100, which is roughly the cost of:

A casual dinner for two at a fancy place (but why would you when you have 20 pies?).

A bulk order of googly eyes to stick on all your pies for an artsy photoshoot.

400 gumballs, so you can live like a kid in a 90s cartoon.

What If You Buy 100 Pies?
First of all, respect. Second, you just saved $500, which could get you:

A used jet ski (imagine rolling up to the bakery on that).

A really fancy mattress, so you can dream about pie in maximum comfort.

A pet goat, which—let’s be honest—would be great company.

But Let’s Focus: $5 Tuesday = More Pie for Less Dough.
Come in today, grab your pies, and spend your savings wisely (or absurdly).

See you soon,
Your fiscally responsible friends at Gray House Pies

Dearest Pie Lovers,

Today, we write not merely to inform, but to confess. For there is a tart and tender beauty in our bakery that has captured hearts with every buttery bite.

Her name? Rhubarb Pie.

Crimson stalks softened with care, cradled in our hand-rolled crust, kissed with just the right touch of sweetness. She’s bold, she’s old-fashioned, and she makes your tastebuds feel things they’ve never felt before.

To know her is to fall.

And today, on this blessed $5 Tuesday, she is just $5 off, along with every large pie and large quiche on our shelves.

That’s not all—our adorable hand pies and hand quiches are 2 for $5 (regularly $5 each).
No pre-orders, no holds—just come and claim your slice of love.

💌 Yours in flaky devotion,
Gray House Pies
GrayHousePies.com (http://www.GrayHousePies.com)

P.S. Rhubarb waits for no one. Come early. Come hungry. Come smitten.

Quick reminder because apparently we need to say this out loud:
👉 We are OPEN today.
Yes. Wednesday. Today-today.
We changed hours, and like any good life change, it takes a minute to sink in. So here they are again:
**Tuesday–Thursday: 11–6**
**Friday: 11–7** (Pizza Night… we made accommodations 🍕)
**Saturday: 9–4** (Biscuits. Gravy. Questionable life decisions.)
Now, let’s be honest…
There is absolutely no reason for us to be here on a Wednesday
(or Thursday… or frankly any day)
**unless you show up and start aggressively eating pies and quiche.**
Otherwise it’s just us…
standing around…
staring at beautiful pies…
whispering things like, “someone’s going to love you” to a lemon meringue.
And look—this whole “working five days a week again” thing?
It gets lonely.
We could all be lonely at home.
Instead, let’s be lonely together…
with pie.
👉 Come see us today (11–6)
👉 Eat something excellent
👉 Give these pies the life they deserve

Today we’re going to walk you through how to make a perfect rhubarb pie in your very own kitchen. It’s easy! It’s fun! It’s relaxing!

Let’s begin:

Step 1: Locate fresh rhubarb.
This seasonal stalk is available for roughly 11 minutes each spring. If you miss it, you’ll have to barter with a farmer named Carl who lives entirely off the grid.

Step 2: Chop the rhubarb.
Ah yes, the satisfying sound of a knife meeting fibrous celery’s dramatic cousin. Don’t worry about the juice—it only stains everything you own.

Step 3: Add sugar.
Not too much, unless you want rhubarb syrup. Not too little, unless you enjoy tartness that rearranges your facial structure. Aim for the sweet spot. You won’t find it.

Step 4: Make a pie crust from scratch.
Combine flour, cold butter, ice water, and the shattered remnants of your self-confidence. Mix gently until it resembles dough or an art project from an unsupervised toddler.

Step 5: Chill the dough.
Use this time to google “how to make pie crust not terrible.”

Step 6: Roll out the crust.
Roll gently, whispering affirmations to the dough. Cry softly when it sticks to the counter. Patch the holes with emotional resilience.

Step 7: Pour in rhubarb filling.
Realize the filling has now turned into pink lava. Pour anyway.

Step 8: Top with another crust, or a lattice, or a loose interpretation of geometry.

Step 9: Bake at 375°F for 50-60 minutes.
During this time, your kitchen will smell like victory. Don’t be fooled. Victory requires a working smoke alarm.

Step 10: Let cool.
For a minimum of two hours. If you slice early, the filling will escape like an angry jellyfish.

Step 11: Finally, serve and enjoy!
If it’s not runny, raw, burnt, or bitter—congratulations. You’re a magician.

And if it doesn’t go according to plan?
Don’t worry. It turns out there’s a local pie shop that makes absolutely perfect rhubarb pie every time—without the stress, the mess, or the counseling afterward.

Yep, Gray House Pies has you covered.
Flaky crust. Tart-sweet filling. Made fresh while you do absolutely nothing.

Skip the chaos. Embrace the pie.

P.S. Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming 12 Shades of Rhubarb event—twelve wildly delicious takes on this springtime classic, plus rhubarb bars, compotes, and more. Rhubarb dreams do come true.

The glorious nonsense continues.
The Obnoxious Decadence Menu begins at 9 AM and continues until we either sell out or are legally advised to stop.
This means:
• Giant sheet-pan biscuits
• Biscuits & gravy
• Honey butter biscuits
• Loaded sausage rolls
• Other deeply questionable acts of breakfast engineering
Not breakfast.
Not brunch.
Worth putting pants on for.
And THEN…
Once you’ve properly launched the weekend with gravy and butter and sausage and joy…
👉 grab pies for the Memorial Day festivities.
Because eventually you have to leave the biscuit paradise and attend an actual gathering.
And when you do, you should absolutely arrive carrying:
• Rhubarb pie
• Strawberry rhubarb pie
• Lemon meringue
• Quiche Lorraine
• Greek quiche
• Rhubarb oatmeal bars
• Possibly some weird rhubarb thing Pie Man invented overnight
This is one of the great American weekends:
cookouts
picnics
porch sitting
people arguing over charcoal
children with sparklers
someone loudly discussing hot dog technique
You do not want to arrive empty handed.
SATURDAY:
Obnoxious Decadence begins at 9 AM.
Pie acquisition continues all day.

🚨 MEMORIAL DAY ALERT 🚨

There are two kinds of people this weekend:

1. People who show up carrying lemon meringue pie
2. People who immediately regret not being person #1

Our lemon meringue is back:
🍋 bright lemon filling
☁️ towering meringue
🥧 handmade crust
⚠️ emotionally destabilizing levels of springtime energy

This is the pie that makes people stand silently in kitchens holding paper plates while staring into the middle distance.

Memorial Day cookouts.
Porch gatherings.
Family chaos.
Lake weekends.

All improved by lemon meringue pie.

Limited quantities this weekend because every pie takes actual human effort and Pie Man refuses to industrialize the meringue process.

The wild mushroom & white truffle oil pizza returns.
This is the pizza that caused otherwise normal adults to say things like:
“I wasn’t even hungry but I smelled it in the parking lot.”
The pizza is simpler now.
No fontina.
No distractions.
No unnecessary flourishes.
Just:
🍕 wild mushrooms
🍕 white truffle oil
🍕 Detroit-style crust with edge-to-edge caramelized cheese
Pie Man says this version is “cleaner.”
We are not entirely sure what that means, but he looked serious when he said it.
---
Also:
Gary’s Cousin is now officially known as:
**GARY’S CUZ DAVE**
Because apparently if a man inspires a pizza, the least we can do is learn his cousin’s name.
---
TONIGHT’S LINEUP:
🍕 Cheese
🍕 Pepperoni
🍕 Gary’s Surprise
🍕 Gary’s Cuz Dave
🍕 Garlic Bomb
🍕 Wild Mushroom & White Truffle Oil
Six pizzas.
One tiny bakery.
A system held together by mathematics and panic.
---
FRIDAY • 5–7 PM
Walk in.
Claim your pizza.
When they’re gone…
they’re gloriously gone.
—Gray House Pies

(apologies for the following image ... no time to update it to reflect these changes. But YOU know. Yes, you know!)

Pie Man insists this is only the beginning.

He believes it may be possible to push beyond five.
Six… maybe even seven variations.
He is currently “running calculations.”
(we’ve asked him to sleep. he declined.)
---
**FRIDAY — 5–7 PM**
Walk in. Claim your pizza.
Five pizzas.
That’s it.
(when they’re gone… they’re gone)

This is your friendly reminder that Memorial Day weekend has entered the “you should probably order now” phase.
The grills are being cleaned.
Coolers are appearing in garages.
People are suddenly pretending they enjoy lawn games.
And somewhere out there a family member has already said:
“Don’t worry, we don’t need dessert.”
This person is wrong.
You need dessert.
You especially need pie.
And right now?
You REALLY need rhubarb.
The chopping continues at Gray House Pies.
Fresh rhubarb pies.
Strawberry rhubarb pies.
Rhubarb oatmeal bars.
Rhubarb chess pies.
Experimental rhubarb combinations that may or may not violate accepted pastry conventions.
We are also lining some pies with housemade rhubarb jam because Pie Man has apparently decided moderation is for cowards.
But here is the problem:
Rhubarb season is short.
Memorial Day weekend is busy.
And no matter how much rhubarb arrives…
…it somehow disappears.
People lose their minds over the first really good rhubarb of the year.
And honestly?
They should.
So if you plan on showing up to a cookout, picnic, porch gathering, lake trip, family reunion, or backyard chaos-festival with pie…
Now would be an excellent time to handle that.
Because by Saturday afternoon, there’s a very real possibility Pie Man will just be standing in the kitchen whispering:
“We had so much rhubarb…”
