What do I think of the pie?

Goodness gracious it's delicious that's what I think of the pie!

I thought I had everything I needed to make a cherry pie except pie crust.

Aaron was getting pie crust on the way home from work: pie crust - check. There was a bag of frozen cherries in the freezer that were intended for Aaron's chocolate cherry stout: cherries - check. The rest of the ingredients are staples right? Sugar and cornstarch: we have to have those. Except I discovered a bit too late that we don't have cornstarch.

Here is a brief listing of some the baking ingredients I found in the cupboard:

- Unbleached flour (plus one extra unopened bag)
- Granulated sugar, extra fine granulated sugar, AND powdered sugar
- Corn syrup
- Cornmeal
- Glutenous rice flour AND non-glutenous rice flour
- Baking powder and baking soda
- Table salt, kosher salt, sea salt, pink Himalayan sea salt, AND salt smoked in chardonnay oak barrels

But no cornstarch. So instead of cornstarch I used arrowroot. I also used Amaretto instead of almond extract.
