Eh, I apologize.

I actually like Weebl and Bob, but I _didn’t_ like the implied desire to hijack MY PIE!

\<deep breaths\>  
Okay, I’m better now.  
\</deep breaths\>

The pie consumption breakdown is as follows:

Last night we each had three or four slices. The actual volume of each slice varied from sample to sample, but I think I got gypped.

This morning we had one slice each for breakfast.

The pie is gone.

It was the pie to end all pies. The crust was the perfect blend of flakiness and chewyness, that sort of equilibrium only realized by painstakingly folding cold butter into the dry dough ingredients. Know what I mean? I said there was extra love in it.

After breakfast I stuck the Holy Pie Plate back into the 'fridge. I intend to lick the sweet purple nectar that suspends the miniscule golden-brown crusty bits from it when I get home.

I am a pig.

I suppose I need to begin my Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie Aquisition Program.

\<sigh\>

I likes me my pie.

I just realized something.

Fresh strawberries are _way_ out of season, and pie made from frozen strawberries just can’t measure up.

Crap.

On the other hand, pumpkin pie season is right around the corner. :\> And apple pie too really.

Ooohhh-

Apple pie. Apple pie with cheese.

_Apple pie without cheese  
is like a hug without a squeeze_

Gimme some of my Mom’s apple pie with a big hunk o’ cheddar.

That might be almost as good as the blueberry.

Dang you, **lokij**. You’re a tease.

I didn’t know pumpkin pie had a season - the cans of pumpkin are always available in my grocery store. In fact, I made one a couple of months ago.

Then there’s my MIL’s buttermilk pie - teeth-curling rich and oh-so-yummy!!!

Must bake pie this weekend…

Hey everybody, **FairyChatMom** makes her pumpkin pies out of _canned_ pumpkin flesh.

Even the rawest neophyte knows that you must roast a whole pumpkin (cored and seeded, of course), and carefully scoop the flesh out of the skin if you want to make Pumpkin Pie. (You need lots of ginger, too.)

Let’s all point and snicker.

Exgineer, you know that you can make pies don’t you? That way, you can have any kind of pie you want when you want. That’s the American way.
