PI(E) Day

Sunday a week ago, we had Pi(e) Day at church as a fund raiser for the Youth Mission Trip.  We had sweet and savory pies, told pi jokes, sang American Pie(Lutheranized) and of course someone got  Pie In The Face!  We spent about 3 hours in the kitchen on Saturday afternoon, and about 3 more Sunday Morning! The Kids did a great job!

For Entrées we had Chicken Pot Pie and Chili Frito Pie, with sides of Strawberry Pretzel Pie, Tomato Pie, and Collard Pie with Hoppin’ John Crust, but the real stars are the desserts pies:
Key Lime Pie
Berry Pie
Kentucky Derby Pie
Pecan Pie
Peanut-butter Pie
Apple Pies
Chocolate Pie
Chocolate Chip Pie
Sweet Potato Pie
And of course, Moon Pies!
We raised almost a Thousand Dollars!  How cool is that for Pi(e)?
On a slightly different yet related note, Alice and I were unable to partake of all the festivities. We had just about gotten everybody served when Stewart called to say he had been in an accident in Catherine's car. Thankfully, nobody was severely injured, thanks to airbags and intervention by Ultimate Higher Authority.
