It has been a difficult year. Photo: Matt Cardy/Getty Images It has not been a banner year for journalists, between the Bloomberg layoffs and the HuffPo layoffs and the layoffs at WNYC and Medium and Vice. Nick Robins-Early cannot change that. What he can do is bake them pies.
The pies — both free and paid for — will be available for preorder by Instagram DM. Pickups will be at the Lower East Side pop-up space Sommwhere on Saturday, November 20 and on Wednesday, November 24 . It will be a pie shop but also a place “for people to come through and hang out.” Tell me about your previous pie experience. Like, theoretically, I could make pies for people, but I’m fairly confident they wouldn’t want them.
I worked on it, and then also started getting help from another journalist who’d previously worked as a baker. I’ve gotten better. There was a blackberry-apple pie I made — maybe in September 2020? — that was a turning point. It just looked great. It had that bright-purple filling bubbling up, it tasted like a perfect blend of apples and blackberries.There’s a lot you can do with pies, and they make people happy in a way that’s fun.
