THE GIFT OF PIE can celebrate, congratulate, welcome, thank, sympathize and console.  A great pie has the power to transport a grown man back in time to his grandmother's kitchen.    It can make the worry and stress of everyday life disappear, if only for a little while.   Pie is the perfect gift when you don't know what to give, or when you do.   It instantly makes people happy, it's good for the soul, it is seldom wasted and never stuffed in a drawer.   Pie is magical.  Pie fixes everything.
