Failed Baking Attempt # What?

It is with great sadness that my friend Laura and I are mourning what could easily be called a miserable baking failure. Tonight, in an effort to do something creative and memorable, we decided to bake a pie. In our minds this pie was going to be a chocolaty masterpiece that people from far and wide would come to sample in all of its glory. Ahh, the delectable goodness they would call it. It was going to be a pie worthy of praise. Yes, it was going to be that good. But how did it turn out? While I would rather not talk about it, "delectable goodness" isn't quite the right wording to describe these pies...chocolate soup with crust might be more appropriate. A miserable failure. So sad. Actually, I'm not giving us enough credit. To be fair, the pie tasted excellent...the presentation was terrible. I've decided to stick with frozen pies and slice & bake cookies. I don't think Proverbs 31 says anything about having to bake with excellence.

Here are some pictures of the baking fun.

Pie anyone?
