The Day AFTER National Pie Day

I became aware that it was National Pie Day yesterday, and had intended to write a post about pie.  Why pie?  Pie rocks, that’s why.  Who doesn’t like pie?  I can’t think of a single person.

So my heartfelt ode to pie was all ready to go inside my head until life happened.  When you’re a mom and you work from home, work tends to get edged out by things like remembering to take the garbage out as you hear the truck coming down the street, an overflowing toilet, picking someone up early from school because they aren’t feeling well, etc.  So I’m a day late and a pie short.  Key lime, by the way, in case you were wondering.  That’s my favorite.

But today is apparently National Compliment Day!  So a message to my readers:  I appreciate your intelligence, good taste, excellent sense of humor, and great wisdom.  You obviously possess these qualities because you are here, reading my blog!  You’re a good-looking bunch, too, I might add.  Please enjoy the attached fun pictures.  Related to pie, of course.
