Boundaries

(For some years my brother and sister and I would corner the pumpkin chiffon pie and divide it up for leftovers later. Then other folks caught wind of what we were doing, and the secret of the pumpkin chiffon pie became public knowledge.)

My father used to warn us about the sour cream apple pie: "You don't want that.  It has sour cream in it."  We kids would go "Sour cream?  Ewww.." and he'd have it to himself for another year.

Eventually, word got out.  And all of us are still holding a grudge.  (Not that this stops us from having the pie, mind you.  It's a rather small grudge.)

...Curse you all. Now I want sweet potato pie for breakfast. NAOW.

As a Californian, I've gotta say the whole debate seems like a ridiculous thing to get all upset about. All you easterners take yourselves too seriously.

California: now officially less weird than Florida, and "medical" marijuana is still legal.

Before I go read the rest of the thread, I am making a small side bet with myself that before it's done, I'll want to post the poem written when we needed to make buttons saying "Smash BiCoastal Arrogance!"

Edited to add: I lose my bet with myself! Excellent!

OK, now I want to console myself with pie.  Mmm, pie!
