It has been a while since I've made a pie. The afternoon was open today, so after a trip to the store for some Empire apples, and candied ginger, I prepared the crust and the filling and got it in the oven. It looks like it came out well. We'll eat dinner first, of course, and then dessert. I thought I would make a quick posting just in case I could taunt any blog viewers who are unable to pop in tonight or tomorrow. These don't last long.

As an aside, note the bag of Heckers flour. What caught my eye in the store was the young boy pictured on the label. As this young fellow is hacking off a slab of bread, he appears a moment away from slicing off two or three fingers. Is this some old-timey picture from back when kids learned fast or didn't survive? How does this help sell product?
