The Cheese That Goes...

Ants in the pants: I've got 'em. I want to make a pie. I've got to make a pie. I NEED to make a pie. Something new, something I've never tried before. But what? Fruit isn't exactly in season here, and everyone knows I only use seasonal fruits. I mean, I guess I could pick up some local apples at Saturday's Farmer's Market(I just found one that operates YEAR ROUND! Oh baby, the cinnamon apple sauce at the Mennonite stand...to die for...).

But, apple pie? Really? I know it's American, and it tastes like home, and all that mumbo jumbo. But come on, I need something new. I need a thrill!

What if I threw something else in there with the apples?

But what? Caramel? Done. Brandy and custard? Also, done(though that one was ah-maze-zah-hing). Cranberries? Do you really think I haven't tried that before?

...And inspiration strikes: The cheese platter...

Have you ever seen a cheese platter without fruit? Neither have I. What if...ok, and I want you to really think about it before being completely grossed out...what if I take a normal apple pie filling, but I encase it in a deliciously, cheddary crust? Then I could do some type of topping with more cheddar.

Wait! Why do I care what you think? I think it sounds awesome! And I think I know what I'll be doing on Saturday, just as soon as I drop Sumo at the airport. Yep, apple and cheddar pie...all to myself. Mooooahahahahahah!

...maybe I could be talked into sharing...that'll probably come at a price though...

  2. My favorite pie is the normal coconut cream pie. My favorite candy bar is an Almond Joy. It sounds to me like a coconut joy on the way!!!! Not too rich though...my blood sugar levels are already high.
