Heres a bit of mischief: About seven percent of Americans have passed off a store-bought pie as their own creation.
This figure was provided by the American Pie Council, the sponsor of National Pie Day, which is Monday.
The idea behind giving pie its own special day is to encourage us to celebrate by either baking or buying a pie.
Now, if there were anyone in central Iowa who would seem to be a likely candidate to bake on National Pie Day it would be Christine Montalvo of Windsor Heights.
When asked how many pies she bakes a year, she responded by saying, Oh, my gosh, I dont know. Probably more than 100.
And, for the record, Montalvos pies win prizes.
