Checking Off the Big To-Do

Apart from the "cook fish" line on my vacation's to-do list (lest I forget everything I learned in my fish cooking class!), I can finally cross off what I felt was my biggest to-do on my list of to-dos for my past vacation week.

Until tonight, I had never made a pie. I had never made a pie crust, and I had certainly never made the kind of pie that requires *two* crusts. But pies are so fundamental and good - especially an apple pie. Tonight, I made my first apple pie, accompanied by my own homemade vanilla ice cream. Feels so good to make the check mark!
