Of Granny Smiths and hitchhikers June 5, 2008

Yesterday, I found this recipeI wanted to try for the weekend. It does seem like a lot of work considering I’ll have to take care of the crust and and peeled apples first, but I’m sure the pay-off will be great.

It also helps to know that the Shopwise branch nearest my workplace had a special on Granny Smith Apples.

I make a mad dash for it, pick up about three six-packs of apples (with two free grapefruits each pack), along with some bread, tomato sauce (for another dish) and lunch ramen. With four heavy and rather bulky bags in tow, I clocked into the office in time, and began settling down.

That’s when I noticed I had a hitchhiker.

A closer, semi-decent shot of the little fella:

Five hours of sleep, and loving the scent of apples in my workstation.

    So did you ever make it? Did it come out okay?

    Oh my.

    Such an honor to have you on my blog, Drew! (and sorry about the delayed reply.) I’m glad to say that the pie was a success last Sunday. I’ll be writing a n entry about it, with pictures. Thank you so much ! ^_^*
