Michelle Obama Makes Surprise Stop at Virginia Sweets Shop

BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP/GettyImages(OCCOQUAN, Va.) — Michelle Obama may be a diehard for healthy eating and exercise, but Thursday on a campaign swing through Virginia she wasn’t counting calories.
The first lady made an unannounced stop at Mom’s Apple Pie Co., a family-owned bakery in Occoquan, a small town about 23 miles southwest of the White House.
Obama perused the shop’s offerings of fresh fruit pies and jams, as well as old-fashioned candies and a collection of wines and beers. “Oh there’s wine!” she said walking through the store. “No one told me there was wine!”
Obama also selected two pies from the display case — one apple pie (regular crust, no crumb) and one sour cherry.
“I will be killed if I don’t come out of here with pie,” she said with a smile, paying cash for both. President Obama is famously a fan of pie. His favorite is reportedly sweet potato.
During the visit, the first lady was serenaded by 6-year-old Sydney Trapp of Fredericksburg, who played “Ode to Joy” on her violin.
“You are on it!” Obama said, as Trapp’s mother looked on. “You’ve earned your pie,” she said.
