We’re the type who likes to have our pie and eat it too.  That is, with all of those upcoming holiday parties, we’re going to be buying our pies instead of baking each one.  It eases the stress of the holidays, and gives us time to actually enjoy the festive season.  They also make the perfect hostess gift.  Olive and Thyme, the artisanal cafe and marketplace in Toluca Lake, is now offering their menu of holiday pies ranging from a cider roasted apple pie with cheddar, to a brown butter pecan with toasted cocoa nibs.  These are not your daddy’s pies.  Or even your mother’s. 

Here’s a look at the holiday menu options, below.  All orders for pies need to be placed between Monday and Friday, with at least 48 hours in advance.
