Resolution Breakers' Round-Up - VOTE HERE!

--Breaking News--
From the You Want Pies With That? Headquarters
This just in. In recent studies, 12 out of 15 bakers found that their New Year's Resolutions could be broken by adding various forms of chocolate to their pies. Of the 15 bakers in question, the two could be broken with a seemingly unthreatening ingredient - bananas, and one more with cherries. Is this trend a portent of things to come in 2009. This reporter thinks it could be. Good day, and good eating!
Holly @ PheMOMenon, for the Pies Staff
... And, we're back. Sorry. You already knew I was a dork, I guess I just wanted to confirm for you that it is my solemn vow to you that my ridiculous(ly bad) sense of humor will continue in 2009. I'm stepping in a bit here to help out since our fearless leader, Susan, is under the weather, but I wanted to let you know it isn't her fault I am a dork. I'm just built that way.

Anywho...

Speaking of 2009, here is our first round-up for the year. As reported above, we have one decadent selection of pies for you to choose from below. On to the voting!

Please remember as you are voting to include the blog name and, if you want to you can also include the name of the pie as shown below so that we can properly collect the votes.

Thanks to everyone who joined in the resolution breaking fun! Voting is now open and will continue through the 10th when we will announce the next theme and new winner!

Holly - Susan gave us until today to post a pie. I posted this morning, and left a message on the previous post, but my pie does not seem to have made the round up.

@ Madam Chow So sorry about that! I didn't check the comments for entries, I only checked the email. You are in now!

This collection of pies is going to be bookmarked by me forever. I know it wasn't intentional, but seriously, the abundance of three of my favorite ingredients, chocolate, bananas, and caramel, in various forms and shapes is just killing me.

This is the toughest vote for me, but I think I will go with:
