One of the first things my mom and I did was bake a couple of pies in honor of my Grandma Baker. We went with apple of course ;)
My grandmother gave me a few tips in the last couple of years about pie baking...she also gave me an apple corer and her rolling pin. I had a great time working my mom on these pies and an even better time eating them!
Mom did all the apples because I had to run out at the last minute and buy flour for the crust. That's how I do things...


The crust came out well...I will tell you, there is quite a difference in making the crust in FL versus Michigan. (See the rolling pin?)
I admire someone who puts the effort into homemade crust. I use the cheato variety and doctor it up. Nice way to remember your grandma.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet way to honor her, & keep her close to your hearts. Those utensils will tell stories of your pies too someday.
