Pie Fest

Made pies the last week...ugh...groan...I hate making pastry...
not that I'm complaining really, but come on...
it gets the counter all sticky,
doesn't roll out properly,
and then doesn't fit in the pie pan.
I mean, really.  Pastry is challenging!  Bah!


I try.  I try real hard.

See - it just doesn't work for me!


Finally managed to get some pastry dough in each pan.

Now it's time to peel the apples...this I can do! 
How long can you peel your peels?

Whew!
What a mess!  I am not happy when my counter looks like this!

I didn't do a pastry topping - cuz you all know now how much I hate making pastry!  So I did a crumble topping...but then I forgot to add the sugar...
so I plastered brown sugar all over the tops...shhessshh!!  What next?!


OK, when my counter looks like this, I finally feel happy.


Taste tests always make me happy too...especially if I get to add more sugar, or cream, or ice cream!!!  Dig in...it's a pie fest!
