On my birthday


One of my husband's co-worker's wives who also happens to be a reader of my blog (you can find her blog here), after months of reading about my complete and utter adoration of all things PIE, actually baked me one! From scratch. And her nice husband brought it into the office and delivered it to Mr. K with expressed instructions that it was for ME!

A GIANT ROASTED APPLE PIE!

ALL FOR MOI!

ON MY BIRTHDAY NO LESS!

To Darren: Thank you for lugging that giant tin into work.

To Msr. Henry: Thank you for being so good thereby giving your mom enough time and energy to bake me that pie.

To Christie: OH. MY. GAWD. That PIE. You are gifted. And thank you for sharing that gift with me! The Twinks also thank you as they are already big fans. Regrettably, Piglet could not be reached for comment. ;)

Yea! You like the pie! If you prefer the apples to be less like applesauce and more like chunks of apple, Cook's Illustrated has an apple-cranberry pie that is very tasty. I love making pies. Did you know Portland has a pie baking contest? (Here's the link: http://www.portlandpieoff.com/) I don't know how to become a judge but wouldn't that be about the best job in the world? Oh, and Happy Birthday!

That Christie... she's good! I think her key lime pie is my personal favorite. Mmmm, I'm hungry now.

Happy (belated, I assume?) Birthday!

Happy belated birthday, Miss MVK! The pie looks delish... did you save any for the rest of us??
