Attack of the Pies
Nov. 30th, 2003 06:36 pmVery successful day, pie-wise.
Four large pumpkin pies and one mini pie.
The Small Boy helped me make the pie shells.
There was a glitch when I managed to dig out, from the far reaches of the cabinet, a can of evaporated milk that expired in April 2001. Yikes! Have no idea how that happened. Anyway, I only realized the expiration date problem because the milk was a weird color when I poured it into the batter. Sigh. Off to the store... Though I suppose it would have been off to the store regardless.
So, between The Small Boy "helping" and the trip to the store, the pies took an excruciatingly long time. But they're done!
Also, made little apple pies with the scrap crust. I miss Carter Mountain. It's just not as fun making apple pie with apples from the store...
And, on top of that, the entire kitchen is clean! And The Small Boy's November homework is done! V. good day.
Still no sign of EK. I think she might be working for doubletime this weekend. Pooh.
