    Egg based foods are very humbling.

    They're simple, they're American and come Thanksgiving, everybody saves room for them. But the pies we know today are a fairly recent addition to a history that goes back as long as mankind has had dough to bake into a crust and stuff to put inside it. In medieval England, they were called pyes, and instead of being predominantly sweet, they were most often filled with meat — beef, lamb, wild duck, magpie pigeon — spiced with pepper, currants or dates. Historians trace pie's initial origins to the Greeks, who are thought to be the originators of the pastry shell, which they made by combining water and flour. The wealthy Romans used many different kinds of meats — even mussels and other types of seafood — in their pies.

    I've been thinking of meat pies the whole time. Am I the odd one out?

    Humble pie, on the other hand, isn't egg-based.

    It's nice to not feel odd.

    And I'm pretty sure humble pie has a high zucchini quotient. Zucchini - the humblest of all vegetables. Also great in chocolate cake.

    You can spit the humbles out if you don't like them.

    If it wasn't for the new episode of House, I would say something about pie.

    Woke up this morning
    And I thought
    I am not happy
    Not happy at all

    Clearly something must be done about that little problem.

    Then I thought about fried fruit pies.

    Deep fried, with the flaky crust. Cherry. Nom nom nom

    so bad for you
    so tasty

    I only ever tried the McDonalds version of those. So odd to have something deep-fried called pie. Not like what I'd call a pie at all!
    But tasty.

    Well, the technical term I happen to know is "fry pie".

    Is this thread morphing into rhyme a word game?

    OK this could become very silly.























    Not that there is anything wrong with that.
