There is a freakin' national holiday for everything, and today's chosen theme is stuff baked in a flaky crust.

That's right, it is National Pie Day.

I still don't know where I fall on the "cake or pie" question, and yes I know that not being able to answer the query is a moral failing... but in any case, there be some darn fine pies here in Albuquerque.

For the classic diner fans, a banana creme pie at The Standard Diner would be a tasty conclusion to a meal, and I've personally seen a friend nearly fall into a puddle of weeping joy when eating their peanut butter chocolate pie.

Of course, the Flying Star offers pies a'plenty, and there are old classics like Route 66 Diner, Owl Cafe, and heck, you can even go to Yasmine's and get yourself a spinach or meat pie.

Enjoy this day of pies and don't forget the ice cream...

How else is there to gossip about the Albuquerque restaurant scene?

There exists a tiny "blog" on the Alibi, as well as on the Tribune, but those are such low traffic and infrequent posts that I think this void needs to be filled.

Let the scooping begin, Albuquerque!

Love,
