Watch the Trailer

Synopsis: Keri Russell stars as Jenna, a waitress whose passion is to make pies, fabulous, delicious pies, and for the most part, the ingredients of each pie is actually based, and thus named, after some frustrating episode of her life, cause they are about the only sweet ingredient in her otherwise dreary existence. She is married to an abusive and over protective husband who she does not love, can't leave with dignity, or divorce, so is planning to run away from home......well at least she hopes so, until an unwanted pregnancy breeds unexpected romance between Jenna and her attractive doctor, who btw is married. Written by director and co-star Adrienne Shelly (who was murdered shortly before the film's selection for Sundance), this light-hearted charmer is a frank and funny examination of the fears brought on by impending motherhood, and the courage to face and fight all odds that comes with it.

Love the song "Baby don't you cry" by Quincy Coleman.
