Thinking about pie by Joanne
Pie prices, like the stock market lately, are volatile.
Yesterday pie was down 25% over Thursday. This may be due to supply and demand. There was a lot more pie in the market yesterday. (And we hope today.)

Every day a different organization cooks lunch and dinner.
The menu varies from day to day.
One long time feature is home-made pies for dessert.
Pie’s gone up!
But the money goes to a variety of good causes—the 4H, PTO and for fair maintenance. So buy two slices.
One for now and one for breakfast.
