Want Pie Now

In the coming week, you will notice a distinct theme here at Cheesehead Displacement Syndrome. Next Saturday is National Pie Day, but being as nobody reads my weekend posts around here, I thought I would devote the entire week to filled-crust desserts.
This includes important tips;

Amusing web animations;

The adventures of Elliott as Baker - for my first-ever chess pie is in the oven as I write this - and Elliott the Pie-Eater, because why would I bake pie if not to eat it?

Unnecessary references to Warrant and Don McLean;
And, of course, gratuitous but tasteful nudity. Can't forget that.
Remember. Life is short, eat more pie.
Have a question about pie? Ask the Nerdy Fat Guy! If he doesn't know, he'll make something up, and isn't that better in the long run, anyway?

I posted pictures and the recipe yesterday, see 'Check and Mate'. Such a simple pie!

Would now be the time to announce my anti-vegetarian status? And...since most pies involve vegetarian components (like fruit for example)...my choices are limited. :-)

(sigh)

Wait...you don't eat fruit? What if you make the pie crust using lard? That's 100% porky goodness, it offsets the fruit thing, right?

Somewhere back in last year's posts I have a rant about how vegans shouldn't be allowed to drink beer, since yeast is technically an animal.

I also wondered why they are so worried about the care of animals....but have no problem ripping a poor head of lettuce from the ground...or an unsuspecting apple, minding it's own business, from a tree.....

Barbarians. :-)

I "always" wondered...no "also." My fingers sometimes just type words without asking me first. :-)

Be nice and share!
