I was just wondering…can you smell it? This morning it was cold in the house and since the hubby has been hinting, strongly, that he would love to sink his teeth into a fresh, hot, homemade apple pie….I decided to make a tasty mess!
Now you gotta understand that when i bake…i don’t worry about making a mess…i know i am going to anyway…so why worry? So, i started mixing my variety of apples and started peeling away. Then i added my spices (secret) and added the sugar (light on that), flour and butter.
I put together the dough….also a secret ’cause…i don’t like too many other pie crusts and mine almost always turns out light and flaky. Well, i am here to tell you that right, at this very minute…the house is starting to smell like a hot and spicy orchard. I just checked on the pie and it is starting to bubble though the crust with some sweet, apple- cidery scent that is just begging to be appreciated with a hot cup of coffee.
Now, the husband is off in his office…the trick is going to be to keep the pie safe from his hands when he gets a whiff; since, i am off to pick up the children from school.
How many of you think he can behave himself and leave it alone? Nada…. Yeah…that is exactly what i am afraid of. It is supposed to be for after supper. Men!
