My friend Fritzi asked me recently if I wanted some apples as she had an abundance! I couldn't say "yes" fast enough!!
We gathered the apples from the ground that had fallen off the tree during the night, then we spent the afternoon visiting! What a double treat for me!
The apples are small so it takes quite awhile to get enough peeled and sliced for a pie, but I did it!!! I used to be really good at making apple pies, but I don't do it very often anymore, so it's hit or miss as to how my crust will turn out. Fortunately, my husband doesn't care. He still loves them no matter how sad they look.
This morning I decided I'd better get to work on some more of those apples, so I made another pie!! I do have to say this crust turned out really good this time. . .it was a hit.
THE STONE RABBIT pointed out that there was no PINK involved in my post so far. . .so we fixed that with this little sign!!
I hope you have a great PINK SATURDAY! I know you will if you visit Beverly's blog, HOW SWEET THE SOUND! There you will find lots of other bloggers who are sharing their PINKS with you this weekend!!
Also, a huge thank you to Beverly for keeping the PINKIES connected for so very long!!

I never could make a pie. The crust was the hard part. Your apple looks so tasty.

Well the apples are a shade of pink!!!! The pie looks terrific and delicious. My pie making days are few and far between but pie is still my favorite dessert.

Hi Dana, We were gone all weekend visiting my brother and my SIL Sharon. They live near Winston Salem, NC, but it is 200 miles from our home. We had a wonderful visit. I only have one brother and we see him very seldom so it was a special time.I will post some photos soon.
Your apple pies look delicious. I admit I buy my crust these days. It is good and so much easier. I have been making rhubarb pies lately because I grow it in our lily garden. The apples are a great treat and I would be whipping up some pies and some applesauce for sure. The pink sign works for me. BIG smile here.
Have a wonderful week.
Love,
Jeanne

Yes, yes, yes. I know I am late. But, I did finally make it here.
Those apples look pink to me. And, you know you have me wanting a slice of apple pie. I'll be right over. So, if you don't have any left, we will have fun anyway. Happy Pink Saturday, Dana.
