Hmmm... thread starts out about lazy men and ends up about intricate recipes that take a lot of time and cost a lot more than the $6 HUGE pies at Costco. Granted, even *I* can make a better pie crust than Costco but I only eat the edge crust on theirs. My pie crust is fattening simply because it is delicious so lazy + less calories = win.

Sorry, Bobert, but I can't walk away. I did before and I had a hard time doing so again after your sage "trap" warning/advice but, on behalf of the less gentler sex, menz and womenz are often different in their approach to many things. Tis life. Tis the way things are. When my floors are dirty, I wear slippers...

I am man, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've seen you down there on the floor
Here, have a beer, you must be thirsty

Sorry, Helen. You Reddy for a nice piece of pumpkin pie with Cool-Whip?... and a beer?
