Pies

I have never given much thought to pies. i'm not a big fan of pies. i mean, sure, pies come in all different flavors and all different, um... levels of yucky. of course, i don't want to infuriate the pie people, once you do that, you're bound to lose half your fanbase...

but seriously now, pies are a big part of the holiday season. what would thanksgiving be without a healthy dose of pure evil- oops, i mean pumpkin pie.

and how can anyone resist the wonderful assortment of pies. that's where real "pie charm" is seen, in "pie-diversity" there is no real "joy" in a pair of pumpkin pies. HOWEVER, if you see a pumpkin pie, a cherry pie and an apple pie, all sitting delightfully together, WELL, now there's a sure-fire way to get a major case of warm-fuzzies...

there truly are a plethora (big word, yay me!) of pie varieties, basically, you can pie anything if you just verb it. pumpkin pie, pecan pie, pineapple pie... truely astounding it is...

i must confess, i am not entirely repulsed by pies. chocolate mousse pie is absolutely unbelievably, amazingly, astoundingly...

good. yeah. tastes great. mmmm.. they have gramcracker crusts, chocolate pudding or whatever, and whpped topping on the top!

of course, where else can you put whipped topping? topping must go on top! unless of course you had a whole dessert comprised of toppings, then you could have toppings on the tops and middles and sides and bottoms and...
