    I'll be making apple/sage/cheddar. The pastry is chilling as I type.

    You folks over the pond will have to come up with another reason for pie. There are many reasons.

    Enjoy it while you can. Tomorrow is the ides of March.
    There is no rational, logical, or physical description of how free will could exist. It therefore makes no sense to praise or condemn anyone on the grounds they are a free willed self that made one choice but could have chosen something else. There is no evidence that such a situation is possible in our Universe. Demonstrate otherwise and I will be thrilled.

    I’d take birthday pie over birthday cake any day.
