Wife and daughter been baking all morning!!

-- Pound cake
-- Two pecan pies
-- Two sweet potato pies

All sitting on the island in the kitchen, waiting for tomorrow and family to arrive (except for my idiot son and famly who are not vaxxed)!!!

Do you know what a house smells like after baking a pound cake and four pies??

I CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER -- I'm raiding the kitchen!!!!!!!!

1. Do what you gotta do, AOG ...

But I advise calculating your losses beforehand, weighing the options, etc.

Hate for you to lose a hand or something ...

[spooky3]

4. LOL! His wife has surely hidden a few pies in anticipation

Of the grand larceny about to be perpetrated.

8. What is the cost-benefit analysis?

Consider what sanctions might be implemented by the offended party...

3. Remember, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to get permission.

Merry Christmas!!

5. you could probably cut a slice from the middle of the pound cake

then carefully push the halves together - less noticeable than a missing pie piece.

[TreasonousBastard]

10. But, the pound cake is no substitute for the pies. I do remember...

years ago when one resident wit managed to perfectly hollow out the best of a group of cakes from the bottom. They sat there on fhe side until the meal was over.

20. That is clever.

If I decide to go into a life of crime, I want you as my partner.

6. Let us know how that works out. 👍

[MLAA]

7. A missing sliver won't hurt....and the end piece of the pound cake is the best!

Good luck!

9. Bacon

You need something to overpower the aroma and temptation. A double-bacon BLT might just do it

Hey, if justice demands it just go with "a bowl of bacon is my Christmas snack" and let 'em drool

[wryter2000]

11. Sample all of them

Quality control, don'tcha know.

[griffi94]

12. Freedom and Liberty for Pound Cake

Pies too lol.

[fierywoman]

13. You need to sample them to make sure they're good enough for the family!

Merry Christmas!

14. Can you drink booze?

I have found booze to keep one from raiding the food before it's ready

[Wicked Blue]

15. There must be zillions of free-floating calories

Every time you inhale, IN go the calories

[calimary]

16. Do it!

Otherwise they’ll wonder what’s wrong with it!

The best cake I ever made was one in which my son ran his finger through the icing to get the first taste!

[Rebl2]

17. Yummy!!!

[Sucha NastyWoman]

18. Cruel and unusual punishment

To do that to you.

[NameAlreadyTaken]

19. Where's the pumpkin cheesecake?

[Irish_Dem]

21. Tell your wife and daughter that your friends on DU made you do it.

Not your fault.

[ZonkerHarris]

28. I'm not taking the blame for this.

[Irish_Dem]

30. I'll take the blame but only if I get a piece of the pecan pie.

[Retrograde]

22. Trader Joe's didn't have lebkeuchen this year

so Mr. Retrograde decided to bake some. The house smelled like spices for the rest of the day.

[appalachiablue]

24. Go for it! At least some pecans in brown sugar.

[Septua]

25. Well, it's better than the stench...

of Trump Party bullish*t...

[lame54]

32. Fried Chicken and a full Depend

[malaise]

26. Go for it

Enjoy!
Happy Holidays!

[Ace Rothstein]

27. An OP with a vague subject that I can get behind.

Enjoy!

[Joinfortmill]

29. You go!
