Fog is just scary. At least snow has the potential for fun.

I love the fog.

AND...fog eats snow.

I do like the fog too. The best fog was London fog -- I had to walk down a street that was cemetery on one side, crematorium on the other, and on a foggy night, all you could see on the one side was high walls, and the other was gravestones in the near distance, and hovering lights in the far. Beautiful.

Fog here is scary, but in a fun way. Crossing a pass can be just a matter of trust, that reality continues on the other side. It's just so sudden. And there's a portion of the 405 where the fog creeps, instead of being a wall. I have no idea what's on the other side, what's leaking out, but I'm curious.

The thing that frustrates me about fog is that I know there's a beautiful sunny day out there if only I were a thousand feet higher. Taking the freeway north is an exercise in frustration sometimes; there are three ridges, and you'll be popping out into the sun and then dropping back down into gloom on a regular basis. So sad.

How to celebrate National Pie Day from the American Pie Council.

Created by the American Pie Council, National Pie Day is dedicated to the celebration of pie. As part of our American heritage, this day is a perfect opportunity to pass on the love and enjoyment of pie eating and pie making to future generations.

Eat pie. Whether you make it yourself, buy it at a supermarket or bakery or order it at a restaurant, eat some pie on National Pie Day. Pie is great with lunch or dinner or as a late-night snack.

Make pie. Bake your favorite homemade pie on National Pie Day.

Share pie. If you make or buy a pie, share it. By its very nature, pie is meant to be eaten with others. Have a pie potluck get-together.

Teach pie making. Stage classes and demonstrations and samplings at stores and schools. Invite seniors who KNOW pie to teach a class. If you don't know how to make pie, ask a pie maker to show you or attend a pie-making class.

Hold a pie night. Gather family and friends for a pie celebration. Everyone must bring one homemade pie for the pie buffet. We have heard of events where more than 100 folks come with 100 pies.

Hold a pie-making contest. Invite the best pie-makers in town to compete for prizes in various categories. Be sure to include the kids. Ask cooking teachers, pastry chefs and pie lovers to be judges. (We'll send you a sample APC pie judging sheet.)

Hold a charity pie-throwing or pie-eating contest or a pie auction. We suggest you donate the proceeds to your local community food bank.

Hold a pie sale and sampling. This is an excellent opportunity for pie retailers and commercial bakers to introduce consumers to pie through special National Pie Day sales and promotions. Bakeries can also donate pies to a pie raffle or pie auction. Restaurants should offer a pie sampler plate or free pie with dinner on January 23.

Stage kid's pie activities. Have kids compete in pie-making, pie poetry and pie art contests. Show kids how to make pie and then serve it at lunch, preferably a la mode. Teach American and world history, math and science through pie.

Pass along pie memories. Our pie heritage is slowly fading away. Call older members of the family and ask them for pie recipes. Ask them to teach you how to make them. Talk about your favorite pies and the family history behind them. Publish pie memories and recipes. Make pie often and serve them to the next generation.

Eat more pie. You can always have another slice, preferably warm and a la mode.

Do pie stuff. Sing pie songs, read pie books, quote pie poems, make pie charts. Join the American Pie Council. Contact the American Pie Council, the only national organization devoted to eating, making, selling, promoting and enjoying pie!

After reading it that many times, the word "pie" has no meaning at all to me anymore.

Pie.
Pie.
Pie.
Pie, Pie.
Without you,I Would die.

After reading it that many times, the word "pie" has no meaning at all to me anymore.

Pie has meaning, as certainly as love and generosity and devotion do, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no meaning in pie! It would be as dreary as if there were no Jessicas. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which pie fills the world would be extinguished.

Find no meaning in pie! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the ovens in all the kitchens and bakeries, but even if you did not see the meaning go into pie, what would that prove? Nobody sees meaning, but that is no sign that there is no meaning in pie. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.

You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Jessica, in all this world there is nothing else more meaningful and abiding.

Meaningless pie? Thank goodness we'll have meaningful pie and pie forever. A thousand years from now, Jessica, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, pie will continue to make glad the heart of Buffistae.

I am now earwormed with Andie McDowell singing the pie song from Michael.

I want pie. And, not to taunt the Northeasterners, I shall go to the store soon for pie. And salsa verde to add to my chile verde to give it that authentic flavor. Otherwise, it's just pork stew with chiles.

Most commercial pie crust should be sweeter, imo. That is about my only thought about pie. ION,I put season 2 of NE on my queue(I love that thing where Bernard and Chris share the same dreams. I once thought I did that with somebody, but we were trading off having smutty dreams so maybe that is a thought for Bitches?
