More Cake/Pie Wedding Thoughts:

Stacey texted me to say:

Ridiculous idea for your (friend’s) wedding pie baking: glass jars. All the rage.

Yes. Pie-in-a-jar is a total raging thing right now, like bunting, striped drinking straws and diy bouquets made of vintage brooches (don’t think I don’t know my wedding blogs). But the pie-in-a-jar thing is something I can totally get behind. Stacey pointed out that I would be able to bake more servings at once, transport and store them efficiently, and that they are pretty darn cute. Just look at them:

And although Faith and Jeff did tell me that I could carve a statue of my own body out of cake if I wanted to, I really do want to give them something they like.

So I texted.

Me: How do you feel about the pie-in-a-jar trend?

Faith: I will eat pie in a hat, a boot, a can, a rubber ducky, you name it.

Me: This is why I like you.

Faith: One time I ate a piece of cheesecake I found on a room service tray in the hallway of a hotel that some schumck decided not to eat.

…..

So I’m taking it Faith and Jeff are cool with pie-in-a-jar, but what do you think? Cool? Too much trouble? Eh?

(ps. What the crap am I going to do with all those jars?)

  3. lblocke said: You could try reselling those jars on a wedding resale site like recycledbride.com. I bet other cool pie-in-a-jar brides will be looking to buy used to save money. Or save them for crafty things for your classroom! Kids like crafty things, right?
