Have you ever indulged in a homemade apple pie (made from scratch)? We have a family friend that makes the best apple pie, and I usually request one for family functions. For my birthday a few weeks ago, she graciously gave me a Pampered Chef peeler/corer/slicer, 8 granny smith apples, and a coupon for a free pie lesson.
I decided to utilize my coupon and turn it into an Apple Pie Party. We all gathered in my mom's kitchen and made 7 apple pies on a Saturday afternoon. Let's just say that the apple peel alone filled up a trash can!
The final product was delicious - and the vanilla Blue Bell made it even better!
My mother used to make the best apple pie. She said it was because she was half-Lakota and the Turquoise Woman sprinkled her love on it. I believe it my mother's love sprinkled on it that made it so good. But then I'm prejudiced.

I love the aprons. Great blog Claire. Apple pie with Blue Bell is my favorite.

Thanks Ann! We have a friend that collects aprons so we thought that would be fun to dress the part.
ReplyDeleteThank you Roland. I will definitely stop by and visit your blog today. My Grandma's chocolate pies were always sprinkled with love (and NO ONE can make them quite like hers.
