real apple pie

Quinn and i are currently at my sister and brother in law's house with their two little boys. One morning Hendrix (2 1/2) and i were playing with play dough making the usual pizzas and snakes, when he decided he wanted to make a pumpkin pie- I'm guessing it's because of his love for pumpkins, i decided I'd make an apple pie. I started with the crust and added little balls for apples and topped it off with the top crust with slits and all- looking just like a real apple pie- only about an inch in diameter, and the color of about 5 play dough colors smooshed together. Hendrix completely bored with his half made pie was looking at mine with intensity and suggested it was a real apple pie and that we should eat it. I responded by explaining how a real apple pie was made, with real apples, putting it in the oven to bake and so on. After a moment of deep thought he suggested we make a real apple pie and then we should eat that one. So off to the kitchen we went and made a real apple pie, that we really ate.



i even cut out a little apple out of the dough

Wow, that pie looks amazing. I made one about 2 weeks ago and it was good, but looked all pale like an albino. Yours looks really delicious. Miss you guys! Where are you guys?

What a boring aunt you are ha ha...every child dreams to have an aunt that marches into the kitchen when they say they might think it was fun to eat an apple pie.
