MMMMmmmmmmm..........Apple Pie!!!




Well, it happened. I've officially been domesticated! I made my first apple pie - from scratch - and even using apples just picked from our tree! (thank you to Gerritt for risking his life and limbs, climbing to the top of the thing instead of just using a ladder as I had suggested)

Anyway, it was flaky, the sweet apples were tender and cinnamon-y - it was DEElicious!

Next time I make it, the only thing I would change would be to put all the apples in. I freaked out when I saw how many there were, but I didn't know that they shrink down quite a bit.

Dang - I wish it wasn't all gone!

That pie looks so good. I'm imagining it with some vanilla ice cream. Yum. You're cracking me up with your body lift from the last post. My arches are super high too.

Umm, excuse me? You didn't bring any of that over? What happened to sharing the deliciousness we make? Guess what you are bringing to dinner next time...as long as Gerrit doesn't die getting the apples.
