PIE

PIE

Yeah, we've been watching the home shopping channels again.

"And with this attachment," the excited American voice told us, "You can convert your Bullet Express into a handy dough maker."

"Whoop."

"Use it to make bread dough, pizza dough, and tasty sweet pie dough."

We look at each other in surprise and alarm.

"I am surprised. Not to mention alarmed," I say.

"Pie dough? What the devil is pie dough?" The Fragrant Mrs Duck replies, "In this country we call it pastry."

"It's for cooking children."

"You sicken me."

"Kill 'em, bugger 'em and eat them. Pie dough."

"You sicken me."

We change channels, where poor, poor Tommy Walsh is selling DIY gear.
