ipie at Palo Alto Farmers' Market Saturday, October 30

"Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere. He's gotta pick this one. He's got to. I don't see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there's not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see."
Linus Van Pelt, It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

It's almost Halloween and time to pick up your very sincere ipies for your party treats!

ipie will be at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market this Saturday, October 30 from 8-noon.

ipie and Oprah!


Ok, I guess it is time for the official announcement on theipiestore!

ipie will be featured in the November issue of
O Magazine which appears to already be on some newsstands but will officially be on newsstands October 12!

The day after I was interviewed by a writer for O Magazine, I attended the Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco. I was lucky enough once again to chat with the talented poet, Silvi Alcivar, founder of the poetry store, who had a booth set up to pen her poems for the masses.

Give Silvi a word and she will pen a poem on the spot using her trusty manual typewriter.

A poem about (of course) pie was featured on this site in February 2010. I told her about the O Magazine opportunity and she was nice enough to once again use her creative juices on behalf of ipie.

Enjoy!


ipie for O


why do i pie? because you want to take big optimistic bites out of flakey crusts and perfectly ripe peaches, blackberries, apples, cherries, and pear-honey, because when life is as ripe and delicious as this slice, you have to just take another slice, plate it up, stick a fork in it, and pass it along.

Now, this, I know for sure.

Blueberry Pie, let's have fun,
'cause when all is said and done

Oh, Blueberry, you're so very berry blue.
Oh, so very berry blue.

(lyrics by the wonderful Bette Midler)
