YUMMY!!!!

YUMMY!!!!

I remember making pies with Grandma and Mom when I was little.

It was an art to my grandmother. They were her masterpieces.

And she ALWAYS said she was sure it probably tasted like awful… but it never did (and she knew that…)

From scratch crust … any flavor on the inside.

-

Grandma was famous for all her desserts…especially her pies.

And my mom learned from her…

And I learned from my mom…

And my brothers learned from my mom.

And tonight…. I taught Jake.

I’m proud of him. I bet it tastes awesome. Probably the tastiest apple pie he’s ever made ;)

I suppose he’ll find out tomorrow. He’s taking them to his work for their Thanksgiving party.

I wonder if he’ll tell them I made it if it isn’t good. :P

WTG Jake. What can we teach him next Bell? I have a few ideas. Did you make him make the fillings from scratch?

Not this time…. we didn’t start cooking until after dinner..and I didn’t feel like cutting apples for 2 hours. :)

But I usually do…

Next time. It is good for them to know what love goes into making a meal for them. You are lucky you have one that likes to cook. Mine has trouble boiling water, or so he says he does. Think it is his way to not have to do it.

I think making the fillings is way easier than making the crusts. The pie looks delicious and beautiful!!
And yes, I do believe if they don’t taste as tasty as they look you will be tossed under the wheels of the pie truck!!
He’ll say it’s because you got him hooked on Bejeweled.

Right.

BUT- The pies went over GREAT! Jake forwarded an email he got that said “WHOEVER BROUGHT THE PIES— WE NEED MOOOOOORE!!!!”

Glad they were yummy. They were gone in less than an hour.

Whats all this “making a meal for them” business? I was a fully qualified mealcooker for years before my sweetie came along and took over :)
