As someone with 2 middle names, I feel uniquely underserved by the monogram industrial complex! I gladly pay an absurd premium to have all FOUR letters sewn by hand onto my Turnbull & Asser shirts.

James Leslie Miles Fisher. Thanks Mom and Dad (all family names). I may as well have WASP tattooed somewhereā¦James was my motherās father - 30 year congressman, WWII hero in Pattonās army : Leslie was my fatherās father, discovered begging for food at age 5 under a bridge in Australia, grew up literally homeless. Am proud of both.
I think my less than favorable opinion of Columbia to this day is almost entirely because of the thrashing it got in the Handbook. I'd never even been to New York when I read it.
On pies, was there a corn pie or pudding recipe on here recently? I said I was going to make it for Thanksgiving the moment I saw it and I cannot locate it.
'Sant Ambroeus got its start in Milan 90 years ago. A chic little ristorante/pasticceria, it opened in New York in the 1980s...' -> this is incredibly misleading. There was no connection between the two. They just used the name from the Milanese place. They went on to buy the original, unrelated, pasticceria in 2021.

My neighborhood in SF had a pie contest in mid October! A mix of professional bakers and home cooks. It was really fun. Great community vibes.
That's so fun! Where was it hosted?
At the community center in Potrero Hill, though it was run by an independent pie enthusiast.
Next question... will there be a holiday cookie contest?
No but there should be. I am planning on hosting a cookie swap though!
The winning pie is available by the slice every night at dinner party until November 25th btwwwwā¦ :D <3
