Someday, I'll master the skills to roll beautiful pie dough and a rolling board that's actually bigger than the dish.

Happy Ending Apple Pie
I made this is with a new crust recipe, sweeter compliment to the tangy apple fillings. Yum!

It's been a week since I've cooked, so I devoted my Saturday night to cooking. Pies were the chosen experiments. Spent 4 hours in the kitchen, and what started off as fun evening cooking ended up like "slaving myself in the kitchen", at least I was safe and dry in my kitchen during the thunderstorm. Now I know- to keep my passion for cooking and hold onto a bit of sanity, I better seperate my pies into two days of work. 

Still, the sharing of warm pies in the midst of a thunderstorm made it all worthwhile. The End.
