So, today is Joel's birthday. He requested a white chocolate banana cream pie. I got him one from the neat little pie shop
A la Mode Pies. Here is the
Facebook page. I placed an internet order telling them I wanted to pick up my pie at 10am.
It wasn't ready when I got there.
You know what they did?!
They gave me a free piece of pie and some tea because my pie wasn't ready yet!

That was totally unexpected and awesome. ( I didn't even have to wait that long for my pie.... it was about 20 minutes.) It made it feel like my birthday!
You can watch them cook through the window.

I dropped Joel off for work this morning by 9.... so I had an hour to kill before I could pick up the pie in the first place. I walked around the couple blocks of Phinney Ridge by the pie shop. Here is what I saw:

| Yes, this tiny slide was chained to a tree..... |

| This tag was in several places in the neighborhood. This was my favorite one. |
Here is Joel's pie!
Happy Birthday Joel!! I love you!!
