My hair person made me look like Rizzo from Grease so I had to bake an emergency pie.

Me, uh, I mean Rizzo. (Stocjkard Channing)

Rizzo has always been my fave. We have lots in common. I won’t say what, exactly, but lots. Even though we are generations apart. Sandy I was not, but during my anorexic days I could have fit into those skin-tight black pants.

Every time I get my hair highlighted and cut, my hair person blows it into the Riz. I swear… It’s all poofy and stuff. Now if she could only style me those boobs, the legs and the butt all would be right with the world.

All of which made me bake an emergency pie. Putting on the Riz makes you bake an emergency pie. You can’t help yourself. I suppose There Are Worse Things I Could Do.

Emergency Pie.

Emergency Pie.

When you have berries and fruits that are about to go bad mix ‘em together with some lemon zest, a pinch of salt, a few tablespoons of all purpose flour and maybe 3/4 cup of sugar. I had cherries, raspberries and a peach. Set them aside while you make my no fail crust (which will not make a top crust so you’ll have to improvise like I did).

No Fail Rizzo Crust:

1 1/2 cups flour

2 tsp. sugar

3/4 tsp. salt

1/2 cup oil (I used half olive oil, half cannola)

2 Tbs. cream or whole milk

Smoosh it all together and press into a pie pan. Spoon in fruit mixture. Make another half-batch of crust and sprinkle over the top. Bake in a 375′ oven for 15 minutes. Decrease the heat to 350′ and bake until the pie is bubbly- 30-40 minutes. Don’t burn the crust.

And there you have it. The my hair looks like Rizzo from Grease so I must bake an emergency pie pie.

    Ha, you really are a piece of work Missy B, “Now if she could only style me those boobs, the legs and the butt all would be right with the world.” You have the kind of BUTT that gets mens finger twitching but of course you know that and are really just fishing for Friday compliments……..

    and the emergency pie sounds divine ……

    You crack me up. Bad hair=make a pie. Your world is a fun place to be.

    Happy Friday!

  4. She always poofs up my hair, Jaye. I usually come home and shower to get it back to my own style but instead I made a pie. ;)

  5. You’re more of a Riz, Amber! :)

  6. No Tom, Rizzo had a much cuter butt. Short torso, long legs. If I can hurry this knee along I’ll come over and make you a pie.

  9. Sorry you ended up with Rizzo hair, but I’m so glad to have your emergency pie recipe.

  10. Thanks, Marylin! As soon as I get it wet it’s fine. Regains its normal shape.

    This seems like a perfectly reasonable response to a bad hair day. Or any little setback, really. Pie cures everything.
