In the latest episode of Family Guy, Stewie and Brian randomly zap themselves to alternate universes, one of which is a perpetually jolly Disney-fied world where everyone has the ability to enter song and dance numbers without a hitch. And what's one of the jolliest topics of them all? Pie! "I want to hear more music about pie!" says Stewie. Don't we all. Watch the video after the jump....

Pie: Every. Single. Day. If I were forced to choose between pie and cake for the rest of my life, I'd pick pie in an instant, no contest. With pie you can go sweet, you can go savory, you can have chocolate, or you can choose from a rainbow of fruit pies. Pie-making, with the rolling out of dough and tossing of the filing, is such a superior tactile experience to the scoop, sift, and stir hum-drum of making a cake. When my cousin got married, he and his wife chose to have a table full of pies and tubs of Straus ice cream instead of a big ol' wedding cake. I consider this a genius move, and way cooler...

I am on Martha's Vineyard, where pies seem to be baked on every corner. I can get my pie fix from Mrs. Blake's, The Black Dog Bakery, Little Rock Farms, The Scottish Bakehouse, Fiddlehead Farm, The Old Stone Bakery, Just Pie, Morning Glory Farms, Garcia's, and literally too many other places to mention. I happen to be partial to Mrs. Blake's, because of her flaky crusts and her fruity, not goopy, fillings, but I am not slavishly devoted to her 8-inch round beauties. So faced with this plethora of pies this July 4th weekend I am going to embark on an admittedly gimmicky, some would say radical, others would say ridiculous and silly, one-day diet of just pie. Stay with...

Photograph from bec.w on Flickr Tomorrow is a really big day for math dorks and pie appreciators alike. Pi Day comes but once a year, celebrating over one trillion digits past the decimal point and people who just need another excuse to eat butter. Last year, Ed rounded up some of the best pie sources in America, and as to be expected, the Serious Eaters chirped up with other favorites. Note: Pi Day on March 14 should not be confused with the American Pie Council's Pie Day on January 23. Both involve happy tummies.

These leftovers come together as a light, flavorful, seasonal, and elegant brunch for all your relatives the day after Thanksgiving. The point with leftovers is: the less it looks like last night's dinner, the more you'll want to eat it. The first recipe uses leftover turkey, but has nothing to do with the traditional white bread, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and turkey sandwich. My Leftover Thanksgiving Turkey Sandwich piles very thinly-sliced turkey breast with crispy bacon leftover from breakfast, a fresh lemon mayonnaise made with juice and zest, frisee lettuce, and Munster cheese, all sandwiched in a thin baguette or ficelle. It can be served cold or pressed like a panini. The result is hearty, but light from the lemon...

With the holiday season upon us we thought it would be righteous to have Alton weighing in on one of our all time Serious Eats favorite subjects,
pie. Needless to say, he shares our reverence for a great piece of pie and the piemakers that make them.

Want a way to serve pie to your cat without getting a stomach ache? Etsy seller CatzillaCrafts offers an organic catnip pumpkin pie toy for $6.99 a slice, guaranteed to keep the kitty away from the kitchen when you're baking for the holidays. The hand-sewn pie features a realistic "flaky pie crust" and a "dollop of whipped cream." CatzkillaCrafts also offers carrot cake, cherry pie, doughnuts, eclairs, banana pancakes, and red velvet cake toys. Though I don't think your cat will really care what shape the catnip comes in, at least you can convince yourself he or she is as food-obsessed as you are....

When I first say Marilyn's photo of her cherry crumb pie, I thought, "Why is she eating it on top of a piece of notebook paper?" Of course, it's a plate that's just made to look like a piece of notebook paper, which she bought from Fishs Eddy. Now I want my own notebook paper plate!...and slice of pie.

Le Lo made this lovely KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) Apple Pie in honor of Pi Day. I like the way her mildly blurred pie appears to be lunging towards the viewer, as though it wants to jump into your mouth and be eaten. Which is, of course, every pie's desire.
