Sweet dessert pies are probably more popular in the US. When I was younger, it was chicken or pork pies for me (a local version of the British pies I like to think). Later on, when I was in Australia, huge meat pies are a thing there. They like to eat them with ketchup too.

Dystopia 03-14-2015 05:37 AM

Haha. I had a kiwi boyfriend who got really confused when I told him about sweet pies.

Iro 03-14-2015 05:40 AM

Yeah, it was quite an enlightening event for me too, when I first found out about sweet pies. [rofl]

Though now that I think about it, the only ones I've eaten before are apple and walnut.

Demon dice.

I am not sure about the demon dice, Dystopia. Was thinking of doing just a raffle. Not sure how long this mini event will last and I want to hang onto the high end items I have for larger events.

@Queenie:
Okay, that works for me! [:D]

I'll nip in if I'm still awake by then. Are you celebrating Pi(e) Day?

Ahh, thanks, Iro! It's always nice to have people come chat in my event threads and new friends are always fun! [mrgreen]

What in the blue blazes is Pi(e) day? Call me an ignorant American...never heard of it before.


Nephila 03-14-2015 05:43 AM

Mmm pie. :D Oh hello art thread.

My favorite sweet pie is strawberry rhubarb followed closely by pumpkin. nom nom.

Beefy pies are yummy too.

Dystopia 03-14-2015 05:50 AM

Pi day is tomorrow! 3.14.

I've never had a walnut or rhubarb pie. I don't know what my favorite is.

The event will last throughout the weekend and probably end some time Monday. :B
And events are best times for that! Everyone in one place, you get to meet lots more people that way. Pi Day is held on March 14 to commemorate the math constant, 3.14etc. There's more information here on Wiki: Pi Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello, Neph! I've never had either strawberry rhubard nor pumpkin. I don't think rhubarb is a thing here, I've never seen one. D:

Queen_Andais 03-14-2015 05:54 AM

I gotcha now...clever. Never paid much attention to it before now. I will have to remember it going forward. Almost wonder if I had a kid and it could be born on 3.14 what kind of stupid name I could come up with for it. Hmmm.... Dutchess Apple.... oh I know! Lattice Apple!

Nephila 03-14-2015 05:55 AM

Rhubarb is celery's sassy tart cousin. XD Only way I can think to discribe it.

Dystopia 03-14-2015 05:58 AM

... Celery? ANd its sweet?

Queen_Andais 03-14-2015 06:01 AM

Celery tastes like dirt in the first place.
As for Strawberry Rhubarb pie, that's my mom's favorite and I like Chocolate Cream Pie. Yum

Nephila 03-14-2015 06:03 AM

I wouldn't say sweet. More tart. The pie has lots of sugar in it so it's like zingy sweet like a lemony desert would be.

Dutchess Apple is not a bad name. [yes]
Though I have seen people named Apple. Hmm...

I'm not sure I'm imagining the taste right. Maybe I should check the fancy grocer, they may import rhubarb for me to study. xD

I've seen that too, kids named Apple. Generally some Actress or Actor's fugly kid.

Can you imagine how badly my kid would be teased for having the name Dutchess?

Velvet 03-14-2015 06:13 AM

I will have to remember this one. I hope I can post this event.

Iro 03-14-2015 06:18 AM

Hello, Velvet! I hope you can too!

@Queenie:
Yeah... I've seen some really barmy names over the years. Not to mention famous fictional characters.

I don't have to imagine. I've gone through my own years of being teased because of an unfortunate name and kids are terrible. x_x

Nephila 03-14-2015 06:19 AM

Duchess reminds me of a cute white kitty.

Iro 03-14-2015 06:19 AM

I'm going to lie down for a bit now. Will be back later!

Velvet 03-14-2015 06:20 AM

It can be hard to make time for Mene in between work and the baby. [sweat]

Sorry to hear that, Iro. Hope everyone that ever teased you gets their just rewards. And by that, I hope worms come up out of the ground and attack them.

Or a bitchy woman with a nasally British accent.

Ahh, you'll find a balance, Velvet. Hopefully. If you want something from the store let me know. Glad to help out.

I appreciate that and so far I don't think I want anything in the store. Waiting to see if they add more items. :P

I will have to ask my Dad, He is a chemist, or rather a real rocket scientist, I bet he would know. He does also make model rockets and his own rocket fuel he uses titanium flakes to get it to sparkle, but it is white not green.... I suppose4 you could look up what makes it green in fireworks.
