Fact..Apple Pie

[Hedgehog]

Apple-pie beds have nothing to do with either apples or pies. The expression comes from the French nappe pliee, meaning 'folded cloth'.



If you want to make an apple-pie from scratch, you must first create the universe. CARL SAGAN (1934-96)

Thanks Hedgehog -- I didn't know that -- come to think of it, I hadn't heard the term apple-pie bed before either (but then that just might be me)
