Welcome! I’m Erica, and this is my little spot in cyberspace where I can reflect upon the blessings in my life and share the fun and the trials of busily raising two sweet boys and a baby girl with my husband. You’ll find a collection of various things here. Crafts, food, faith-based projects, a bit of rambling. I love to share photographs and dreams–all things under our catch phrase of “growing together.” In the beginning, that’s all it was. I simply wanted family and friends–far and near–to see what we are up to as we grow together in faith, in knowledge, and in love.
In January 2013, I decided that Warm as Pie needed a facelift and a greater sense of purpose. It needed to become something more than a personal blog. I want it to also be a place for celebrating family as a concept, not just the story of my family. I’ve always wanted Warm as Pie to BE good, but now I’m hoping that it can DO good. In that vein, I will be posting information about adoption, foster care, and orphan advocacy each month. And I hope to also feature different families from time to time to highlight how we can be “growing together” in new and exciting ways.
I hope that you like the changes you see here and decide to become a regular visitor.
I can be reached at warmaspiedesigns@yahoo.com. I would love to hear from you.
This is a breastfeeding-friendly zone!


Thank you for calling my attention to your blog. I will look forward to reading more in the future.
I’m so glad that you came to visit my blog! Hope you enjoy what you see.
Hello, what a nice site. Thanks for being an assest to our family. From the moment I met you I knew that you & your hubby were true soul mates. I will enjoy visiting this especially when I am having a “blue” day. I did send a lenthy message but I did not put my e-mail and it wiped everything I had said out memory is short on days like this. I will have to visit again.
Thanks! What a sweet message. I love being part of the family!
Ditto to what Aunt Patty says about you & Cory
Erica, I finally had some time to read your blog tonight. I enjoyed it very much. I love reading about your wonderful loving family and life. It inspires me. I guess I don’t know as much about the computer as I thought I did, since I cannot give you any information on the Website line. I don’t know the answer. It took me a long time to learn what people were talking about using the word blog.I am trying to learn how to keep up with the times. I don’t email sorority very much, can’t keep up with the emails.
God Bless You and Your Family, Erica.
