on one fine summer’s day

j. leach

local english teacher and writer

has launched

a wonderful new business in my town called,

‘why not pie?’

it’s a virtual bakery

where she

creates homemade pies

each week

for pickup or delivery.

she’ll try most any flavor you request

using locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.

this is really a win-win situation in my eyes

and i can’t wait to try one.

or more.

you must first invent the universe.
