Pie Season

"Don't forget to bring the pie home today, okay?"

Recently a co-worker went apple picking with his wife at a nearby orchard. I asked what she planned on making and he answered matter of fact, "a pie, of course." Considering she just moved here from another country... one where making apple pies isn't a common occurrence, I was curious how it would turn out.

Holy moly, was this pie good! It was an apple crumb, a pie I'm not that big into, but this may have changed me on them. A nice thick layer of apples, the filling was moist and not overly sweet. It almost tasted as if it was a caramel apple pie. Could you imagine? A caramel apple pie? Me want. NOW.

M and I fought over the remaining slices. We tried our best to be equal, but it's hard when the pie was so good.

I think I'll have to find out that recipe.

Pie

I did indeed bake some pies with the apples that I picked from Altamont Orchards. Aside from eating a bunch of them and giving them away to family, I ended up making three pies and two quarts of applesauce.

If only cooking could be as fast as this. Then again, if it were super fast... I'd weigh so much more than I do now. Yay laziness?
