Does She Boil The Pies?


The local Fox affiliate in Dallas snagged an interview with Jessica Simpson yesterday. Not that they really had to work hard to get the interview. Unless having Joe Simpson call the station every five seconds to see if they wanted to interview the actress from a #1 movie. I know, I know it was in Russia, but that doesn't mean she isn't billed like that anyway.

Anyway, because it is the holidays, Jessica did her aww shucks routine and said she would rather be home with her man Tony than going out to clubs. This is probably also to avoid being laughed at and mocked, but it is what it is. Then she delivered what is perhaps the best quote of the day.

"Believe it or not, I like to bake pies. Tony’s favorite is pumpkin pie and I haven't mastered that yet. Maybe I'm more of a baker; I like to make cakes, more fattening. I make a good carrot cake."

I just can't get over that whole "I'm more of a baker" thing in the middle. She said she likes to bake pies but then kind of indicates that perhaps baking is limited to cakes which would make a person wonder if she is trying to grill her pumpkin pies. Perhaps she is trying to use a real pumpkin left from Halloween. What is there to master about making a pumpkin pie except to not burn it? All you do is open a few damn cans, dump it into a pie crust and bake the thing. How can you not master that? Can you not figure out how to turn on the oven? What the numbers mean?
