Friday's Foreing Objects

What do we have here this week? Pies. That's right: pies are the theme. Big ones, little one, apple pies, blueberry pies and pies with lots of birds on them. Not that I have a bias againts savoury pies, but for today our pies will be sweet. Now before we get to the pies, let me tell you just what totally confused me when looking for these lovely entries: the tagging. We've all heard about tag spamming and hey, it happens out of pure mistake to the best of us, but these here pies have been the most painfull category to wade through (if we're not counting "chocolate" since a lot of people like to describe colours with words like chocolate and berry and ocean, which naturally meant those categories having lots of brown, reddish and blue items with not a choccie or a puddle in sight, respectively) since I started doing FFOs. There was lots of pizza and even though it says so in the song, pizza is not a pie. Not anymore at least, thought it used to be. There were lots of dogs too, and children and doctors and naked ladies and fruit. And none of these were in a pie! As "pie" is not officially a colour, it does sort of go to point out how incredibly loose some of the tagging on Zazzle is.
So as a customer/contributor request: keep your tags sorted and relevant. Your products will be more easily found and you'll run a smaller risk of getting reported out of sheer annoyance. Thank you.
Now on with the pies!

Put one hanging from a tree!

Have pie on your shirt!

And of course you need a good binder to put all the pie recipes in:

Stamp some pie-lovin' on your mail!

You can enjoy pies with all the other delicious things you can make out of some flour and sugar and things that grow on trees and bushes with a calendar:

And definitely decorate your walls with pies:

Pie in the fridge (or on it) makes the day better:

Send non-squishable pies to friends!

And keep sweet treats next to your computer:

You can always be a little... hospitable with your pie too:

And you should remember pie even when you're just drinking some coffee:

Afterwards you can mess with everyone's heads by sticking pie-stickers everywhere and pretend they're real tiny little pies:
