Victorian Slang: Resurrection Pie

Victorian Slang

Resurrection pie; Fake pie (Straitened Soc., 1880).

A towards-the-end-of-the-week effort at pastry, into which go all the ‘orts’, ‘overs’, and ‘ends’ of the week.

(All entries in the series are taken from The Victorian Dictionary of Slang & Phrase by J. Redding Ware)
