Let Them Eat Pie…At Mayflower!

In a take-off of Marie-Antoinette’s famous quote during the French Revolution, Mayflower suggested on Wednesday, February 9th, “Let them eat pie!” Baked in the Mayflower kitchen, it was a treat.

Residents were invited to a “Pie Pick-Up” event to choose pie slices on tables filled with a variety of pies. The choices included French silk, mincemeat, raspberry, sour cream raisin, apple, blueberry, and pecan.

In the accompanying photo, cook Rosie Mumm displays a piece of sour cream raisin to Foodservices staff member, Tawnya Rotz.

Even though close socialization is limited at this time due to the high COVID-19 positivity rate in Poweshiek County, residents were still able to “eat pie!”
