Happy Wednesday!
Today is…Homemade Pie Day
#HomemadePieDay
Do we need an incentive? (I love pie and have it for my birthday!)
Homemade Pie Day is a fine food holiday, particularly for pastry chefs and bakers. Why not host a pie baking or pie eating contest to celebrate Homemade Pie Day on August 1st? Or, simply fill up a few pie pans with whipped cream or shaving cream and have a pie-throwing contest or a pie-in-the-face contest to mark the occasion?
Every day we look for the best in Positive News so that you might have a great start on your day. Thank you for taking the time to read, share and support our mission.
