FAQ:
Q: Is this a real pie or a metaphor?
A: Why not both? You can bake it literally—or read it as a recipe for reclaiming your narrative.
Q: What if my in-laws aren’t ready to digest the truth?
A: That’s okay. Some people aren’t ready for real flavor. Just serve yourself.
Q: Can this pie mend broken relationships?
A: Not directly. But it can be the beginning of choosing honesty over silence—and self-respect over approval.
Final Thought:
Sometimes, the best way to serve the truth is on a plate—sweetened with grace, but never watered down.
