This Easy Snickerdoodle Pie is so easy and delicious! Can be whipped up in just a little bit of time!
I’m gonna gripe.
If you don’t want to hear it, please fast forward to the tasty recipe below.
If you’re on-board to listen to my diatribe, please carry forth.

Annoying facebook posts.
You know the ones.
Here are some that top my “please pierce my eyes out with skewers rather then make me read them” posts…

“Made homemade cinnamon rolls AGAIN for my kids..guess I am a creature of habit”
Gag. We get that you are trying to convince people you are Mother of the Year, or you know what? maybe you are…but please, my kids are sitting here eating Lucky Charms and quite happy. Plus, Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls are seriously delicious..save yourself the yeast.
“Woo hoo! I am now down to my high school weight…love the gym!”
Double gag. I certainly can’t speak for everyone, but I know that I don’t give 2 shakes how much you weigh. Stop bragging about loving the gym. The gym sucks, we all know it.
“Having a bad day…”
PLEASE, just come out and say WHY you’re having a bad day…it’s obvious you want people to ask, so spit it out, because, trust me on this…I’m NOT going to inquire further.
Any random song lyric.
No one thinks your cool because you quote The Rolling Stones.
I MIGHT think you’re cool if you quote Vanilla Ice, but no one seems to do that.

“My husband is cheating on me.”
Dude, TMI. While I agree that he should be put on blast, not sure that facebook is the correct forum. Just sayin’.
or the most annoying…
Updating the world with EVERY THING YOU DO…
example…“Just got home from work…”, “What to eat for dinner?”, “Gonna watch some TV now”, “Great show”, “Sleepy now, going to bed”
Don’t need to know everything.
Now, beyond all THAT I really enjoy facebook.
I like seeing pictures and keeping in touch.

Political diatribes and statuses in all caps.
I blocked all of the people who make stupid status updates. I used to just skim them and get annoyed… Then i found the block feature and my life has been so much better! :). I'm so very tempted to make this right now.
This post was hilarious. My daughter and I were just talking about the same thing.
I have some med school classmates who seriously update their facebook statuses constantly with what color they just painted their nails. And apparently, they paint and repaint their nails multiple times. Every night. Gag!
Oh but this pie. Not gag-worthy. So not gag-worthy. Delicious in fact.
I'm so going to make this! Vague facebook status annoy me to no end! I also can't stand when people leave things on each others walls like ' oh I love you so much' when they live in the same house! Or when they wish each other happy anniversary, hello attention seeker.
Ok, now that I stopped drooling… I totally agree on the FB front. I think some people have WAY too much time on their hands!
Yummy!!! xx
I must admit… I totally skipped the diatribe… I was lured in my the delicious looking photos! I'm SOOO making this pie (and soon)!
I'm gonna go back and read the whole post now…
Yummy! This looks delicious, i am sure it would disappear in my house!
I agree with the annoying Facebook posts, i have the crazy annoying ones blocked so i only see them when i want to 🙂
