Pineapple Coconut Pie
"This is a lovely recipe and I am so thankful that my husband received this cake as part of payment for fixing an air conditioner over the summer. Thankfully he remembered to ask her for the recipe as well. This is from Ursula's Cooking School in ATL. It is a very summer cake with taste and smell but I am so excited to have this recipe that I will be making it again really soon."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am 29 and a stay at home mom to 3 kids, 2 little girls with a sweet little boy sandwiched in between. I love to decorate cakes and make other sweets. I also love cooking healthy fresh whole food dishes, I have to balance out the sweets somehow. On Saturday evenings we entertain friends and try new recipes out and have a big meal together and enjoy the joy that comes around when good food and good company combine! I watch a little boy during the week and my husband works with his father in the family HVAC business. We love to tackle home projects and my husband usually gets the pay off with a really yummy meal. I write and do a little bit of artwork but most of it is translated into cakes now. We love to spend time outside and manage to have a small garden in the backyard that we can eat out of during the summer. I think it would be awesome to have some chickens for eggs and as pets but the neighborhood doesn't allow it so we will have to wait till we move back into the woods again.
