The Bunny Box

Hello everybody! As you may recall, a couple weeks ago, I went cherry picking . Well this week, I went peach and plum picking! And I wanted pie. So badly. That I broke out some mini frozen pie crusts. Here's the result: All this is is frozen pie crust, sliced peaches, sugar and a little pumpkin pie seasoning, topped with a lattice crust. Now, here's the problem: SOGGY PIE BOTTOM! If only I'd added a little flour or corn starch! Anything to soak up those nummy juices! I'll know better for next time. For now, this is a pretty darn tasty pie. :) In other news, THIS IS POST #100 ON THIS BLOG!! Get excited! I'm throwing a little party in my brain. ~wiggle to the left, wiggle to the right~ I hope you've all been enjoying it. See you later at post #1,000. :-D

So, funny story. I know how much you guys look forward to reading my posts and somehow I just got so caught up in school and other wastes of time that I completely forgot to post about the single greatest baking day of the season so far: Thanksgiving! Let me start off by letting you guys know that I'm not a big Thanksgiving celebrator. Before this year, I hadn't had a Thanksgiving dinner (well, not a REAL one anyway. Last couple of years, we had tacos) for about 6 or 7 years. I didn't mind, really. I missed my father's Thanksgiving cooking (he makes the best stuffing and gravy!) but that was about it. This year, however, my grandmother is back in town. She moved back here around March and unfortunately had some health problems (which are now resolved, thank G-d) and as November approached, it seemed to be taken for granted that we would have to provide her with a Thanksgiving feast. Okay. No biggie! It's just an excuse for me to try my hand at pie baking. ...
