A few months ago, my dear friend Cindy Dach and I decided that Pie is the new Cupcake.

And then we decided to prove it. If you live in Phoenix or somewhere nearby, come to Pie Social, this Saturday, November 13, from 2 to 6 p.m. at 5th and Roosevelt streets in downtown Phoenix. Come and taste, for a $10 donation, or make 2 pies and taste for free! We’ll also have some local celeb chefs on hand with their own creations. Here’s a Field Guide if you need it.

Hope to see you then!
