The Perils of Apple Pie
While celebrating the end of exams recently, a visitor to my humble abode brought along an apple pie or three to help kick things along. This is all well and good, but what about the means of eating it? Because of the hot nature of apple pie, it’s not the sort of thing one can just cut up and put on a plate for people to pick off, and god knows that there aren’t enough bowls in my house for more than about three people to eat at once. So what do you do? Well one of my particularly adept friends managed to figure out that we could use the handy tin-foil tray it comes in to serve it around, once it had cooled a little – this second part was discovered by trial and error. It seemed like a good idea at the time. This morning while cleaning up (lucky it’s recycling day on Monday!) I found globules of apple pie innards all over the floor, and most surfaces in the kitchen. So now I say renounce apple pie in favour of Doritos and other such easy-to-vacuum snacks!

This thought was also probably from the same person who wa being quiet in favour of “intelligence and profoundness” and was the only one who managed to get his arse handed to him by the lovely Kat… top stuff sobey… but more amazingly, he was the one who managed to give poor midgley’s asahi glas a new finish. (cracked glass… so 1992)
Apple pie wasn’t the best of ideas, nor was pizza randomly left on the floor… hence why i use pubs to enduce my mess of parties with!
In the words of a certian great individual i know, the party truly was “crackerjack” and i’d like to wish you, and the linda, the best for your trip. enjoy. you’ve earned it… we’ll save our monies and treat you to an unholy night of liver torture when you return!
as for you sobey… i think after your glass and a half performance last night you’ll have to make a few calls and try and get your name of certian “people to kill” lists.

Can I suggest someone check for pizza behind the couch. Pie boy and mrs housemate tipped some over the back in the kerfufle.
Cracker of a night.

[Editor’s Note] There is in fact a picture of the afforementioned asahi glass in the photo gallery…I’m upset.

On behalf of everyone, I’d like to wish young William and Linda a safe conclusion to the journey.
Knowing Will, his first European rant is going to be ragarding the fact that even though you should be able to get *unlimited* free grog on the plane, the stewardesses take far too long to bring it to you….
hehe
