A.A. has taught me that we alcoholics are neither round or square pegs, and we definitely do not fit into any round or square holes. What we are is oval pegs, each one of us a unique oval and a loving Higher Power has made a hole that fits us uniquely and that hole can be found in the rooms of A. A. . Never ever fit into any hole while I was drinking, except maybe the hole in the wall that I called my second home. Today, love going to a meeting where I fit in.
A Boston cream pie is a yellow butter cake that is filled with custard or cream and topped with chocolate glaze. The dessert acquired its name when cakes and pies were cooked in the same pans, and the words were used interchangeably.

I understand! I often think I’m one of those square pegs! 🙂 They need union representation!

It’s good to be square. My round part is at my waist line.

Yes, my fav, Boston Cream Pie but I get in arguments because it is a cake not a pie and why do they call it pie ?
