If only life were as easy as pie.

Keri Russell stars as a diner waitress stuck in a lousy marriage whose only solace is baking out-of-this-world pies. When the awkwardly charming Dr Pormatter comes to town, she’s inspired to mix-master her life into something far more satisfying. Jenna (Russell) is also a 'pie genius,' naming her tantalising confections after the tumultuous events and emotions of her daily life. She’s hoping that one of her pastries, like her 'Kick in the Pants' pie, might even change her life – if she can just win that $25,000 pie contest. But when Jenna discovers that she’s pregnant, she immediately bakes an 'I Don’t Want Earl’s Baby' pie – a quiche of egg and cheese with a smoked ham centre. But the pregnancy eventually changes the course of events in her life, giving her an unexpected and newfound confidence via letters to her unborn baby.
