Would YOU eat a chocolate pecan pie baked by Sarah Huckabee Sanders?

I saw the movie 'The Help' and I wonder if Sarah did, too.

#Piegate comes back as White House press secretary says she baked FOUR chocolate pecan pies for reporters after one accused her of faking Thanksgiving dessert photo

Sarah Huckabee Sanders will bring four chocolate pecan pies to a White House press corps holiday potluck on Thursday – her effort to defuse the '#piegate' controversy and tweak the reporter who launched it.

The White House press secretary tweeted photos Wednesday night showing the pies in various stages of preparation, along with raw ingredients and the finished product.

April Ryan, a correspondent with American Urban Radio Networks, had suggested after Thanksgiving that she believed Sanders had faked a tweeted photo of her family-recipe dessert.

'It’s pie time! With or without bourbon @AprilDRyan?' Sanders tweeted, thanking Vice President Mike Pence's chief of staff Nick Ayers 'for supplying the pecans from his family farm in Georgia.'

Actually, I like tuna hot dish. The egg noodles, the peas (mandatory!), goodness gracious, it's yummy.

Sarah! No self respecting pecan pie has chocolate in it. For Christ sakes, does everything have to be like a guilded lily?

Who would do that? And people thought that was a great part of the book.

Ugh.

Chocolate pie, yes. Pecan pie, yes. Chocolate pecan pie? Nooo, I don’t think so.

1) She takes a bite before I do
2) She allows me to give the pie a big spin before she takes her slice

It wasn't anything my family ever made. Our next door neighbor was very proud of her pecan pie so I'd eat a small piece, just to be polite, when I was at their house. WAAAAYYYY too sweet, for my taste.
