I went to the library yesterday afternoon for a bit and when I returned home, there was an apple pie baking in the oven.
The children, with a friend, had picked apples from our trees, made the apple filling, the pie crust from scratch (even looking up the recipe I use - No Fail Piecrust from The Amish Cook).
A special note of appreciation to Mike for accommodating the flurry in the kitchen that I am sure occurred during the process of making.
It was delicious!
We went to the apple orchard last weekend and now we have two huge bags of apples ready for a pie. I have been making apple cobbler.... but I should make a pie..yum!
ReplyDeleteYour children did a great job..I'm sure it was a very welcomed suprize to come home and have a nice slice of pie after your visit to the library...don't you just love the library...I do free books to look at!
Have a Blessed Weekend!
Many Blessings,

What amazing children you are raising!
ReplyDeleteAwesome pie kids!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky mama! Not only did you get library time, but you had your children treat you well. I'm sure the pie was sweet for a few reasons. Enjoy your weekend, Tonya.

What a wonderful treat to return home to. It looks so good, they did a fantastic job.
ReplyDeleteYum...I have not done much baking this summer, just bread for our daily consumption. But I am looking forward to more sweet baking for Autumn :)
