A Slice of Pie

     Today was my first day back to work, but this time, from our apartment. I was really worried that the day would feel like forever.  I was wrong! Today was so much fun. I got to answer a few phone calls when the office got so busy that they couldn't keep up. I wrote a policy today for a guy. I also caught up all the Internet leads that came through over the holidays.  It was a great day, I skipped my lunch hour, and worked nonstop until the office closed. I am so grateful!  

     Yesterday, Joel and I decided that we would go to a local bakery called "A Slice of Pie" to celebrate my first day back to work. I was looking at it more as a way to get me through what I thought would be the longest day in history!  Regardless of how my day turned out, I was still very excited!  Joel's sister, Jenna, told us about this place and said they have the best pie!  I looked up reviews online and everyone raves about it.

     This place is a little hole in the wall. You will want to make sure you are up to date on your shots before going there.  :)  Haha  It really isn't dirty, it's just kind of old feeling. Since all the reviews online said the French Silk pie was the best, that's what I got.  Joel always loves a good cherry pie so of course, he got that one.  We each ordered half slices, which were around $4 each. 

The French Silk was a little too sweet for me. And those of you who know me, know that's unheard of.  It had a sugary gritty texture which wasn't my favorite. The flavor was good though.

 The Cherry pie was much better. I don't like fruit goo so I didn't try it, but I did have a few pieces of the crust and it was phenomenal! Joel loved his pie a lot! 

     Now we are full of pie and ready to watch a movie. I am so thankful for such a good day. I know they can't all be this good, but I'm hopeful that most of the days will be!
