Mmm delicious though.
Yep, we're expecting! Due at the end of February - pretty excited!!!
The weekend before Thanksgiving Meg and I went over to Matt's grandma's house (Momma) to learn how to make pie crust and pies, in general. I know I could have just googled it, but she's been making pies for a long time and it was a nice afternoon to spend together. 32 apples. I still have some in the freezer to use. Pie recipe (crust is on another page I think) Momma mixed the dough while we peeled a sliced apples. That's a lot of McIntosh apple slices! Rolling out the dough as thin as possible Getting thin dough into the pie plate without tearing is a two-person job! Cutting off the extra edges I'm sorry do you think pies are healthy? Crisco/lard/butter crust, sugar and more butter on top? Mmm delicious though. Cinnamon and drops of butter cover the sugar before the top crust gets done. Meg is creasing the edges to make it all pretty The finished (uncooked) product! Pie # 2 is underway (we were pros by then) Decided to try a basket weave top this time. Baking is messy. First pie (right) cooked, second pie ready to go (though I cooked it at home later in the week - left it frozen in my fridge until Thanksgiving, along with 2 other apple pies). We also did pumpkin with ready-made crust. And pumpkin tarts - so cute! And even more adorable with some whipped cream on top (at Thanksgiving dinner). Oh yeah and I "outed" myself by posting this picture on IG and FB, not realizing how "bump obvious" I was looking.
