PMN Family Pics

As usual, am late for PMN family pics
I was hoping I would make it to the deadline this time but we were in Sedona the whole day yesterday and didn’t get back home until late. The theme this month is plated (on a plate).
Nothing can beat home-made pie. It simply delicious especially with french vanilla ice cream topping or plain cheese. My whole family loves apple pie. But, I only bake it on special occasion like on Thanksgiving or Christmas because it is too rich and it is too easy to eat the whole pie.
Apple pie brings back memories of my mother-in-law(bless her soul). She made the best apple pie, and I am not kidding. She tried teaching me how to make it, but for some reason, mine wasn’t near as good as hers no matter how much I practiced.
I also have a friend, named E, who is an excellent baker. I learned from her how to make the best apple pie crust. She never uses her bare hands to mix the dough and that is her secret. The crust is nice and flaky!
This Thanksgiving, I am pretty sure she will be baking apple, pumpkin, and pecan pie. And you know what it means– pig out time again!

Belle, I know what you mean. Rich food affected me also but we can’t blame the pie alone for our weight woes:) Wouldn’t that be great if we could eliminate one food item from the diet and wham … you’re back in shape! Nope… doesn’t work that way…hehehe!
I dunno why, I’d prefer buko pie talaga. The one from McDo is not bad, kaso bitin dahil maliit. Basta iguang desserts, maski ano ang gibuhon mo home-made, lafangin gabos.
ahhhhhhpple pie + vanilla ice cream! i can relate
I love the plate. I love the pie … gimme gimme but please lotsa whipped cream on top please.
I love the picture. Kakaiba!
Hi Belle, wow sarap naman….I would love to taste your apple pie.
hanggang buko pie lang ako hehe never tasted an apple pie before but I love apples
Yummy!! I am a big fan of apple pie. So if your friend would be so kind as to send me one for Christmas, I will be forever grateful
yes, especially with vanilla ice cream…sarap.
another favorite: pecan pie submerged with whipped cream. The best.
I love making and eating apple pie too and yes with vanilla ice cream, sometimes hot custard
now i long for desert. it’s almost lunch time and i can’t wait to eat my desert a chocolate marjolaine
Yummy! I love apple pie ala mode too.
You may find my Plated entry here.
Thanks for coming over earlier. The award is already posted.
My earlier comment did not go through. Maybe due to the link I placed about my plated entry.
Anyway, let me try again. That really looks good. I love apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
Elyani, i have to stop eating those yummy food because my weight is creeping up like crazy.
K, i have yet to make that buko pie. next week, i am going to the oriental store in the city and would try to buy baby coconuts for buko pie. parang madali lang gawin.
Ssssh, sarap di ba? lalo na pag home-made, it is heavenly.
Anna, you prefer whipped cream on your apple pie, huh? para hindi gaano matamis like vanila icecream?
Rowena, really, it tastes good as it looks.
Verns, i have yet to try buko pie kasi i haven’t tried it also. apple pie has tart taste to it as opposed to buko which tastes sweet.
Kongkong, hahaha, where do you live ba?
Chesca, paborito ko din and pecan pero sobrang rich kasi. it uses corn syrup and pecan nuts.
pining, ahhh, you are the baker. do you make your own crust or you buy the ready made crust at the store?
tutubi, what is chocolate marjolaine? parang ang sarap!
Rach, i don’t know why your comment earlier didn’t show up. no control over it because i have an admin who is charge of my site.
so ikaw din pala mahilig sa apple pie with vanilla ice cream, my family’s favorite!
