Side Story
 Decadent Cookies Each year January 23 marks National Pie Day according to the American Pie Council. Because nothing tops a cold winter day like a warm piece of pie, the Historic Inns of Rockland, ME celebrate pie on January 14 and 21, 2007. Each Sunday’s pie celebration will take place from 1-4pm as Historic Inns of Rockland’s member inns feature homemade pies at the 3rd Annual Pies on Parade Inn to Inn Tour. Along with a collection of recipes to take home as a keepsake and plenty of pie to taste, the inns offer demonstrations about pie baking techniques and pie decorating. Additionally, weekend guests can look forward to breakfast featuring egg pies and possibly even pie à la mode! Best of all, those attending the tour can feel good about eating pie because proceeds benefit the Area Interfaith Outreach Food Pantry of Rockland. Proceeds and matching grants from previous Pies on Parade have raised enough to feed two hundred needy Midcoast families for a year.  Living in Luxury Local businesses will sponsor or create gingerbread sculptures in the name of nonprofits of their choice. Tour goers will vote for their favorites, with winning sculptures receiving $500, $350 and $250 donations to their charities. In addition, those who complete the tour of all 17 inns, stretching from Hart’s Location to Tamworth in NH and over to Fryeburg, ME, can enter a drawing for a 2-day getaway at the participating inn of their choice. 800.626.5855 www.countryinnsinthewhitemountains.com PHOTOGRAPHY: PJ WALTER |
