LOL @ this thread.
Forgive me, believers--perhaps it is the Devil who speaks:
But, why
can't you let your pies cool on the kitchen table?
I don't understand.
You lock your doors to keep unwanted visitors out at night, don't you?
It's the same with pies.
Cool your pies indoors.
Putting your pies on the 'sil...leaves great potential for 'pie-stealing'!
Anyone who bakes pies should be so cautious...
Plus, think about it:
Letting pies cool in the window...? I mean---there's no telling how many flies or bees will get on it!
...and anyway my daddy never stole pies... Where'd this whole black people steal pies thing come from?
