    Her mom was a purebred German Shepherd (met her personally), but no idea what the dad was. I think probably some type of bully breed garden variety pitbull mix since she's brindle with a square head. She came from a farm in the boonies of NC and the neighboring farm had a literal feral pack of dogs, one of which was probably the dad but they were incredibly, rabidly aggressive (they full-on attacked my moving vehicle when I pulled up, spent a good hour trying to leave without hitting them) so I didn't stop to take a good look at them!

    So, I'm throwing my friend a birthday party and making a fabulous cake, naturally. He turns to me and says, "I know it's a lot of work, so you can always just buy a cake from costco instead! It's perfectly good cake!"

    Me:

    So, anyway, we're never gonna suggest that again. We learned our lesson. We realized we were being silly and Birdie doesn't like it when we're silly about cake.

    Yeah I wondered if it was part pitty, not a huge fan of the breed, but the animal looks bred out enough to be acceptable in a civilized home. I claim to be able to determine the acceptability of dogs in one glance, and I'm not a pitty fan :emoji_joy:

    Are we at least in agreement that you shouldn't bother with making a homemade pumpkin pie with how good and cheap costco's are? At least if you are using canned pumpkin like most people it just isn't worth it.

    I'm sure there is someone who barely grasps the English language but Turks just enough to have seen one of Birdies posts to know better than this.

    I'm not really convinced that making pumpkin pie from scratch will really help that much anyways with how spice heavy it is. The crust obviously can be improved greatly but is that really worth it when you can get that massive pie for $6?

    Cakes are another story as home made will always be better but :dunno:

    It's not that I won't eat a costco cake/pie/whatever, it's that I won't buy one instead of making one from scratch when it comes to someone's birthday or whatever.

    I just don't buy pre-made for other people because I enjoy making food for others. It's the gesture. It says I care.
