Author Notes: Every now and then someone declares that The End of the World is about to happen and I take it as an opportunity to bake a pie. You know, just in case…
So on the eve of the possible End of the World the two of us ate a whole take-out pizza, half of a cherry pie and many of these Whiskey Sours.
The End of the World didn’t happen, of course, but we still had a great time.
You know, just in case…

Or perhaps we have the makings of a Food52 Meet-Up theme? Frankly I can't think of a better way to spend Armageddon than with a bunch of fellow foodies, lobster, pie and whiskey.
