I was at Walmart the other day to buy a new rug for the front entryway since we just got our carpets clean and I noticed that apples were on sale for 98 cents a pound! So I of course bought like three pounds and then when I got home wondered how we were going to eat 3 pounds of apples. And then genius struck! Alan loves apple pie so I thought it would be fun to make one, so we did! The only problem is that my pie dish is a litlle small so as you can see, we had quite the mountain of pie!
I kept telling Alan that if we put all the apples in it was going to be soupy, but he insisted. So we popped the pie in the oven, with a pan underneath to catch what I was sure was going to bubble over.
35 Minutes later, we had a beautiful goldern brown pie!
Until we cut into it that is...and then we realized that yes, we now have a very tasty apple soup! So back in the oven it went and about 20 minutes later and we had a much denser and even tastier pie. Finally! Never mind it was almost midnight, it still tasted wonderful!
I guess we will just have to keep trying until we make it perfect! YUMM!

Thanks for updating the blog. Its nice to keep track of what is going on in everyone's lives. I love blogs for that reason. I can't wait to see you guys at Christmas? When are you coming? We'll in IF from the 20th to the 2nd. Colter is going to LOVE you Alan. I'm sure of it. Sorry, Dianna, Colter is kind of sexist.
That pie looks so tasty! Nice costume Alan, I liked the idea of handing out fortune cookies and chopsticks!
