***TEXOKIE, where can I put these pies? I’m just real partial to pie. We’ve got chocolate cream, coconut cream and banana cream. Sorry for any of you meringue lovers, I like real whipped cream on ‘em. And here’s my favorite, peach along with an old family favorite cream cheese pecan. (It’s my Crazy Aunt’s secret recipe. It’s ok if I admit she’s nuts, she’s also my favorite and I’m her favorite niece which is why I got the recipe) Now, if I can get one of our gentlemen to run back out to my car there’s two freezers of homemade ice cream out there. Let the night shift begin.***

MY HEAVENS!!! SUCH BOUNTY!!! We all love your crazy favorite aunt here!
*texokie sees CJWolf in the Qommon area and drafts him and the current crop of Chop Sticks musicians to help carry pies and ice cream. texokie goes to the Qanteen Qloset and shuffles aside the vacuum cleaner and the tyvek overalls and all the stacks of odds and ends on the floor. She manages to get to the back wall where the extra card table is stored. A couple of shovels fall over and wing her on the knee, (ouch) but persistence pays off and she brings the card table out.
The card table is wiped down and a table cloth is located, amazingly, right where it should have been: the linen closet. Pies and ice cream arrive. Ice cream goes into the freezer, and the pies are arranged on the table. Hungry FReeQs all gather round.*
**Mother of Dragons comes out and sees what is about to happen and proclaims**
“I made a prodigious stack of sammiches and I want my dragonlettes to have sammiches FIRST before dessert!”
*mild grumbling and only just a little complaining are heard as she brings out a big tray of sammiches. But FReeQs recognize the wisdom of it, and comply. And are they ever glad*
Mother of Dragons, THESE ARE GOOOOOOOD SAMMICHES!!
*then there is the requisite diving into the wonderful pies. The doors to the Oracle and LexiQon offices slam, and we all hear footprints.... YES!! Swordy and Bagster, The Oracle come and join us as hilarity ensues*
I can haz chocolate pie?
(WNeighbor is secretly glad she snuck a little peach pie and ice cream before heading to the Qanteen)
This turkey and swiss sammich loaded with fresh tomatoes was really yummy but I'm ready for dessert now. Maybe coconut pie and chocolate ice cream would be a fitting end.
