The foil I've never heard of (I will remember than for good pies) but the fork
pricks were apathy more than anything. I know I could have put more effort
there but this was a test pie (which failed miserably--the filling was far too
watery and have some lumpy cornstarch bits in it--didnt stir enough during
preparation of the filling.)
I think it may have been a bad idea to use canned peaches. I bought a can of
peaches on a whim to just eat out of the can, but figured I could make a pie out
of it. I found a recipe on conservativehousewife.com or whatever (I'm not
kidding, seriously) for canned peaches but it relied heavily on the use of
cornstarch and careful preparation of that stupid filling.
