Bear With Me My Friends...Working on My Pie Competition


I haven't posted since last week. Work and personal life is crazy right now. By the time I usually get ready to blog I'm to tired. Not to mention keeping up with all of you. This week I have a Grand Opening at work, will be casually entertaining a fellow blogger on Sunday, working on some house stuff, seeing Certain Someone off to yet another business trip, and submitting two apple pies to the Buck Town Apple Pie Contest next Sunday. I've spent this morning on a practice pie. Cant tell you my secrets yet, but its looking good. I'm incorporating some unusual spices and techniques.Its amazing what I have learned in year from all of you and the Daring Bakers. So wish me luck folks, and I will try to visit you this week if time permits.

    Glad to see I'm not the only one grappling with PO symptoms (that's Pie Obsession). Since the weather has changed pie is pretty much all I think about!

    Good luck, Courtney! Your apple pie is already a winner in my eyes. Want to hear all about your secrets once you can reveal them.

    (Thanks for making the time to stop by my site. I know how hard it is to make the rounds.)
