Welcome

My grandmother always said that the kitchen is the heart of the home and I agree. So, please, come on in, get yourself a cup of coffee or tea and sit a spell...

Apple Pie - Fresh out of the Oven


I decided to practice photographing food. So, I took some pics at the various stages of my pie making tonight.

As I mentioned in "Cooking Tips for That Thanksgiving Day Feast", I used a refrigerated pie crust.

It took 4 good sized apples, cored and sliced, for this pie.

I used 1/4 cup brown sugar (we like it tart), and 1/4 cup flour. I added about 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.

I baked it at 375 degrees for 40 minutes.

I forgot to brush it with milk prior to baking, but I don't think we will care when we are eating it. I claim "a senior moment" compounded by my routine being broken up to take the pics. That's my story, and I am definitely sticking to it.

(several hours after posting this, I remembered that I like to sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top of the crust, too! Maybe I am working too hard.)






Don't forget to dot with butter before putting the top crust on!


Well, I am getting tired and want to relax a bit with a cup of herbal tea. Mmmmm, I think I will have Orange Mandarin Spice by Celestial Seasonings...See you tomorrow.

knotgypsy...now I'm hungry, and it's YOUR fault. :)

I'll be strapping my wife into the chair in front of her computer directly...she's the cook in the family.

I once burned a dish of ice cream.
