The powers that be have proclaimed May 13 to be National Apple Pie Day, here in the USA.

It is a well established fact that the apple pie did not originate in this country, but we seem to have a special affection for it. Notably the phrase “as American as apple pie” has been around for more than 100 years.

So, have a slice or two - in these days no one will fault you.  As Fabienne says, “Any time of day is a good time for pie.”  (Although I recall that her favorite flavor is blueberry.)
