[Editor's Note: Food bloggers were shocked this past weekend to learn of the sudden and tragic death of fellow blogger Jennifer Perillo's husband, Mikey. The outpouring of online support—from posts to eight-second hugs on Twitter—has been awe-inspiring. This week, Jennifer herself asked her readers to take time today and bake Mikey's favorite pie, peanut butter cream, in his memory and to share it with someone they love. The editors at CNN's Eatocracy are among those bloggers taking part in the celebration of love and life and support for Jennifer. --Genie]

A peanut butter pie in memory of Mikey

Jennifer provided the recipe on her website, and my colleague Sarah and I will both be making peanut butter pies to serve to people we love. Join us—and hundreds of people around the globe as we celebrate a man who made the world a sweeter place for everyone around him. You never know when you might have a hungry heart of your own that needs feeding.

I was passed on this story here in Australia too - it was a moment of introspection... and I felt compelled to make it also. http://www.frillsinthehills.com/2011/08/sunday-unb...

I picked up the heavy cream, cream cheese and chocolate cookies yesterday. We'll be having peanut butter pie tonight -- and toasting Mikey while sending a lot of love to Jennie.

jacitwidwell I read the blog post earlier this week... I wish I had an ounce of baking ability to bake this pie for Jennie.
