Carl Sagan's apple pie recipe
Here's an old recipe, tried and true.

I often bring up Sagan's quote when people say they've "built a PC from scratch" and such. Of course, I don't say it to make a philosophical or cosmological point of any sort, but to be the sort of linguistic jackass you know me as.

That's brilliant. I'm a huge huge fan of Dr. Sagan, and I've always noticed how he often used apples in his analogies and explanations throughout his series Cosmos.
I also loved the little detail in the preparation time: "12-20 billion years." Ha!
I followed your link from the Flickr post to your blog - wonderful! :) Where did you get Mr. Sagan's recipe, and are there more??? *grin*
To be fair, in Cosmos, Sagan said you must first "invent" the universe, not "create."
Still, I love this. :)
I like mine with a dash of Elaborate Logical Underpinning
I like mine remixed and rebaked.
