Pies Made By … WHAAAAT!?

Yes, that’s a real restaurant. The Thunderbird Restaurant is in East Zion, Utah. The founder, Jack Morrison, spelled home made as “ho-made” back before the word "ho" got its current meaning.

Found at our pal Dan Piraro’s new blog (he knows all about pies!): BizarroBlog

    If you’re traveling in Door County, WI, you’ll see they make more than just pies: http://www.beashomadeproducts.com/

    Lexington, KY’s fabulous Tolly-Ho, supplier of drunk and hangover food to generations of UK students, employs this spelling all over the menu. If it’s your first time there, when they call your name for your order they’ll call you “the Ho Virgin”.

    I think it’s nice that they give pie-making opportunities to women down on their luck.

    In Vermont on the way to Okemo, there is a hot soup stand called “Smokin’ Bowls”.

    Wait–does this mean they’re made *BY* Ho’s…or *FROM* Ho’s?!

    “Waiter, I’d like to order a slice of Sixth Street crack fiend a la mode, heavy on the cheap jewelry…” *ducks and runs*

    Hah! I’ve driven by that place more times than I can remember and never even noticed. Another one that had to be pointed out to me was the city Toquerville. If you spell it out phoenetically it might come out something like To-Queer-Ville, not to mention the other interpretation.
