If you are in the San Diego, why not get your yummy pies for Mama’s Pies, and do some good at the same time? You might even win something. I mean, besides a full tummy and that satisfied feeling of doing something good at the same time. And YOU ALL KNOW how much supporting those with cancer means to me.
