Easy as pie he said.
Its just meat and dough isn’t it?
Hours later the pie, or what purported to be a pie was still in the pre-cook phase.
The meat bit was ready.
The pastry another matter. Despite following the recipe, checking and double-checking, the result was disastrous.
Finally out of desperation he bit the bullet and put everything together and into the oven.
He waited, and waited finally taking the pie out and watching to see if the top sunk or the cooked meat oozed out like an erupting volcano.
Holding their breath, they sat down to dinner.

Nothing nicer than homemade meat pie. LOL or chicken pie. My son-in-law makes a mean Satay chicken pie. Hmmm…but something tells me the pie in the photo is apple 😀
Trust you to notice 😂
LOL sorry, Michael. Not sure if it’s because I like apple pies or because I’m way too pedantic – very probably both 😀
lol reminds me of my lack of baking skills 🙂
Baking is challenging
Disaster dinner – I serve that one up regularly. The issue comes when it is actually good
Happens to us all I think.
My Mum baked a pie and to keep the crust up in the centre, used an egg cup.
Sadly it was a plastic one.
Note: she made the most mouth-watering pastry, and never used a ‘riser’ again.
Its good to remember our mother’s cooking. My mum made the best apple slice I ever tasted but everything else she was pretty ordinary at.
Hubby likes my cooking regardless, but his favourite has to be McCheese.
Michael that was another lovely pie-in-the-sky fantasy.
Thanks so much Jim.
