Fry pies are readily available, and they are wonderful. If I indulged every time I came across fresh Amish fry pies, Id eventually end up stuck in the doorway.

THey were shaped like turnovers, and were made with either dried apricots or dried peaches.
Damn those things were good.
One of the best birthday presents ever was the box of fried pies she sent to me at college.

Dried Apple Pies
by Anonymous
I loathe, abhor, detest, despise,
Abominate dried-apple pies.
I like good bread, I like good meat,
Or anything that's fit to eat;
But of all poor grub beneath the skies,
The poorest is dried apple pies.
Give me the toothache, or sore eyes,
But don't give me dried apple pies.
The farmer takes his gnarliest fruit,
'Tis wormy, bitter, and hard, to boot;
He leaves the hulls to make us cough,
And don't take half the peeling off.
Then on a dirty cord 'tis strung
And in a garret window hung,
And there it serves as roost for flies,
Until it's made up into pies.
Tread on my corns, or tell me lies,
But don't pass me dried-apple pies.
