I did burn an apple pie,
NOOOOOOOOOO!!
Wait, how burnt are we talking?
I tried my best to not over do it. But between the lasagna and the little old Italian ladies pressuring me to eat more and more (in between telling me I'm too fat), the ham and the real live Italian pastries we don't get very often. It wasn't easy!
Let me give you a quick example:
"You're getting too fat! You better start watching your weight. Would you like another piece of pie?"
"Um, no thanks."
"Don't you like pie?"
"I love pie."
"Then why don't you have another piece?"
"You just told me I'm getting too fat. Besides I'm full."
"Are you SURE you don't want another piece?"
"Yes I'm sure."
"Is there something wrong with it?"
"
"
Oh, and not to forget the incredulous look I got when, after getting AWAY from the table at 4 PM, I declared I didn't want a sandwich at 6 PM.
