December 1st (5 weeks ago today), I baked my first pie (1) and got 2nd best sweet pie in a friendly bake-off! Using an apple pie recipe from the web, I peeled & chopped apples(3), squeezed a lemon & added flour, sugar, cinnamon(4), and mixed it(5). Buttered & pressed dough into a pie plate(6), filled and dotted it with butter(7). Covered & cut slits(8), glazed(9), and baked it(10). I placed the still hot pie on a cork trivet, slid it carefully into a sideways brown paper bag, and let it cool en route to the bake-off. Cut slices, still warm, and shared. (2) Actually used only six apples and one lemon. #2018_335 #pie #firstpie #applepie #imadethis #homecooking #homebaked #baked #latergram #nofilter
