That's probably a pecan pie, but it kind of looks like chocolate chess. And chocolate chess is frickin awesome. Either way, I'd eat it.
Looks good, but it sure ain't no Whale Cake...
The term "humble pie" comes from the French word "nomble" which means "deer's entrails." After the upper-class twits had the choice parts of the venison, they'd leave the offal for the plebes to turn into something marginally edible. I just thought I'd throw that out there for all the poor slobs who are f**king sick of eating turkey leftovers. At least you're not eating turkey intestines.
But who uses a bread knife to cut pie?
Hipsters
Duh?
But of course!
"power surge," eh?
oooooooooook, we'll see.
"Power surge" being hobo jargon for "conductor with hot flashes."
"A woman tells WJLA ..."
The ABC news story seems to report that the young woman reported a rape to the police, which they investigated. Is there another story about someone telling (potentially false) stories to the local press?
