Can you say ROAD TRIP!!

[MOBIUS]

I live here. You don't.

Indeed. I found it easy to navigate around in the day or two I was there, whereas you find it confusing even though you live there...

I bet you own a sat nav.

That particular recipe calls for 1/4 salt and 2 cups sugar so you can imagine if she confused the salt and sugar! All I really have to be concerned with is getting from the hotel to the Ramada Celebration hotel where the contest is being held. It is apparently National Pie Day and Festival so I'm sure there will be lots of pie.

Frosty we're not so much into savory pies here in America, more sweet pies.

Ok, for all you cooks out there how do you get meringue to not seperate from the crust or cause syrup build up I have to get that one licked before Friday. Seems when I put that pie in the frig it causes the meringue to pull away from the crust and under the meringue has a syrup build up.

The National Pie Championships are in Florida this weekend so I'll be leaving Austin and driving to them! I have three pies entered. I just hope I'm up to the 18 hour drive then making pies then going to the contest We mapquested the trip any suggestions to get from Austin to Orlando? Points of reference along the way?

The Ramada Celebration Orlando is just west of Kissimmee, so it's possible to get there without 'getting confused' in Orlando, or even the possibility of a 'confusing drive' around Kissimmee itself - as a point of reference your hotel is virtually opposite the two main routes into Disney world off the I-4...

As for along the way, you'd be crazy not to visit New Orleans as it is a fantastic city. One other major point of reference you can't help but spot from the I-10 on the coast by Mobile is the USS Alabama. Unfortunately I didn’t factor it into my trip as I didn’t realise it was there until I saw it from the road – so I consoled myself with visiting the USS Missouri at Pearl Harbour about six weeks later instead…

God, yer dumb.

If I go through Georgia I of course have to visit Savanah and the Queen of Butter herslef Palua Deen! Or at least her resuraunt. going up there I just want to get there, but coming home I would like to see some sights.

[Nugog]

I miss decent pies.

[MOBIUS]

God, yer dumb.

I'm dumb because I find it effortless to find my way around the US in a car without the need of sat nav...?

You probably need a sat nav just to get to the end of your garden.

Sounds like a road trip with detours!

Savannah is awesome BTW - somewhere that managed to halt the rampant destruction of 'development' and now uses its easy southern charm as a virtue...

[Tiamat]

I loved Gone With the Wind one of my favorite movies. I wish there was a real Tara one could go see. Oh and the name has finally settled.

Betty Lou's Pie House

Friend and I both like it.

Better than you needing a piece of tied string to find the loo.

[MOBIUS]

Well at least I've given Tiamat a couple of mildly useful pointers, rather than: "You might get lost in Orlando, never escape whilst losing your money and, oh BTW Kissimee is just outside Orlando..."

You can count on the Indiana Twins to royally douche up a road tip suggestions page!

You are so colossally ignorant it is amazing. Neither Theben nor are I are from Indiana. Theben is stuck there because he thinks with his dick, and I've never lived there.

[Theben]

Tia didn't say when she was leaving... how much time will you have to sightsee?

Tsk, tsk, you should be proud of your heritage - not desperately trying to cover it up like some Communist era mass grave...
