Soooo no "Water for Elephants" tonight after all.
jade_okelani emailed me yesterday warning me not to go, because it was all over Twilight fandom and it was going to be a madhouse of obsessive Twilight fangirls, as it was the first screening of the movie. Someone "in the know" also posted to a messageboard that it could get postponed. Anyway, Jade knows I'm deathly allergic to big crowds, especially when a crazy crush of fangirls are involved. So I emailed
adelagia and
lyndsiefenele, bailing on our plans, because yeah, no thank you. About 30 seconds after I sent the email, the company called and said that "due to technical difficulties" the screening of the movie had been postponed, lol.
Even though those plans are now scrapped, we decided to get together tonight anyway. :D I still had some pate brisee in the fridge from when I made homemade Pop Tarts, and had been noodling with the idea of making Rose Levy Berenbaum's Designer Apple Pie. I decided to go for it since I could share it with the other gals tonight. I didn't have enough pie dough to make the fancy leaves for the border (and also, I don't have a leaf cutout), but I think it otherwise turned out well. ( Viola! Pie. )
