Hot and Meaty

No, we're not talking about Mario Lopez. Although we can't tell you the number of times he's almost made the blog post cut.
What I wouldn't give to be that Huffy 10-speed.
We're talking about meat pies. Specifically we're talking about the meat pies that we just made this afternoon that knocked our f*cking socks off. Behold:
6 hot bundles-o-meat wrapped in flaky pastry and baked to perfection in a Texas muffin tin. Presenting the pastries is the Texas muffin herself, Lara Cirkovic.
These things were delish, and this was just our first batch. By the time we get back to the States (April-ish 2011, btw) Lara will be so good at making meat pies (and Adam at eating them) that we'll be ready to open our own pie stand, a thought that has quasi-sincerely crossed our minds.
Step 1 to opening a pie stand will be devising a business plan that clearly spells out how we will run a pie stand without very quickly becoming obese.
Adam has already enlisted the help of his hilarious (and engaged - congrats!) sister Anna to come up with a name for the pie establishment to be. So far the leading candidate is "Meat Me In St. Louie."
You can't pay somebody to come up something so genius.
