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.

Love. Love this post. Love your treats. I wish I didn't love to hate those kind of FB posts so much or I might just "Hide" them to save me those daily rants myself!
I had to laugh over the crazy Facebook posts. I don't have anything to do with Facebook because I do not have the time. I'd rather be Mom of the year in the eyes of my children and that means staying off Facebook and also spending a minimal time online. I think too much time is wasted online. I know it all has its place but really…
Yummmmmmm!
This will go in my "can't wait to try this!" notebook.
And, I'm with you on the FB thing…but yet I love it too.
I try to be witty (and sometimes fail) or post the kid quips (which are almost always funny). The TMI things make me cringe – I've discovered the "hide" button a few times!
Let's not forget the FB posts where somebody waters your Farmville plants! Talk about having too much time on your hands! ROFL
This pie is on my Must Bake Now list.
I love all the goodies you make!! You are amazing but my most favorite are the brownie cones with the peanut butter frosting!!!!!! Everyone should try them they are heavenly!! so thank you thank you!!
I totally "like" your pie. Looks very yummy. My BFF and I were just making fun of a mutual acquaintance on FB the other day. All she does is take pictures of herself with her boyfriend and she always talks about how awesome he is and how she is so blessed to have his love, etc, etc….BLECH!! It's quite sickening, but makes for some nice laughs!
I also hate gym updates, especially from girls who I know are totally making it up and sitting on the couch stuffing their faces and watching Oprah. Whatever….
This looks amazing!! Those Facebook posts drive me nuts, too. Especially the "having a bad day" one.
gotta love that "Hide" feature
Love it!!!
Your pie looks to yummy! I totally agree with everything you said. I have a cousin who has so many grammatical and spelling errors in her posts. Now I know we all slip up a few times but hers are always full of errors. She also tells us all about her ex-husband/baby daddy and how aweful he is.
