From the archives: Dear Margie and Dave and Mel and Tall Chris and funnier Megan and Becca and Anthony and Marcus and anyone else in Sacramento who might compete:
See, that's the way to go. Post more pictures of yourself smiling and baking and soon you'll have to beat back the horde of potential husbands with a stick.
In the first place, it was a pie WE made. So the default assumption is that it is one excellent pie. In the second place, we'd already tried the filling and I have complete confidence in my crust. In the third place, I had a piece of that pie with ice cream for breakfast, and it is indeed a pie that can tell the whole world to BRING IT.
I got my sister's old camera, but it won't stay charged. Ali's camera works though.
Tony!!:
Honey! Can't wait to see you! Arriving on time won't be enough to defeat our pie, but that's awesome that you'll compete!
JMPP:
But that's who I always am. It is the rest of you who make up stories about me.
Hey Mr. T. Mo., You got a blog and didn't TELL ME???? *gasp* ! What I really meant is, here is Mel's tip to winning something at Megan's pie contest: DON'T enter the fruit pie division, as you will be CRUSHED by Megan and Ali and Leslie who usually have multiple entries. Except for that one year I WON with my strawberry pie, woohoo! So maybe that's not such a good tip after all. Oh yeah, and bring your pie before everyone has left, that's important. :) -Mel
Lithium Ion batteries go bad with time, whether you use them or not. Buy a new battery for it, it'll work fine.
Actually, I usually carry 2 or 3 batteries, that way I can use my camera for a few days without recharging. But, I tend to be places where there's no electricity, like on top of Matterhorn Peak over the weekend. Soooo much fun.
Practice makes better but definitely NOT perfect. We will bring "it"! Wanna bet on "it"? Which ever pie gets the most votes in the Best Overall category...loser drops for fifty?
I certainly do not want to make a habit of saying this, but JMPP is right. I believe I'm in your general target demographic (but for being across the country and a lawyer), and that is a pretty awesome picture.

Right on. The infamous tarte aux taunt.
Tom:
That's awesome.
Pfft, you how good could that pie have been? You hadn't even eaten any.
Justin
And, did you finally get a digital camera?
Justin
Oh....It's been brought'n
I'll arrive on time this year.

Oh damn - now I'm hungry AND ....
And if you say it's a strawberry rhubarb...

Jon:
Nope. Cherry-almond.
Dave:
Fifty isn't a very high number for people who've been going to swimming everyday.

You don't get them both Dan! ;-)
I'm not sure I like it when the first post wins the thread so convincingly, there's nowhere for the rest of us to go.
Is there a formal contest here, or is this just a general challenge issued to the city?
This is just me and Ali and our pie, inviting all our friends to Pie Contest.
mmm... pie.
smiles to dazzle the eye and heart,
pie to make the tastebuds dance,
for these, many would beat a path to your door...
er, well that's prolly considered stalking these days... nevermind. ;)
have fun with the contest... even the runners up will be tasty I'd wager, and how much fun is that?
D
Maybe...but I think without buoyancy gravity will get to you plenty with those fifty.
We'll have to wonder forever, won't we? You're on, mister. Loser drops for fifty.
Speaking of which, pub quiz this week?
I thought you moved part time to Oakland, what happened to that? Shouldn't you be doing this recreation stuff in Oakland now?
Justin
It sounds like it may be time for a Fedex Division.
When it absolutely, positively, has to Bring It.
