Yesterday was the Apple Pie Baking contest, so I started with a lot of green apples...
and I am now an expert apple peeler.
I decided on three pie recipes. I wanted a verity of different types of Apple Pies to give the judges something different that would stick out among the other pies. The three recipes I decided on were a Sour Cream Apple Pie (pictured below on the left), Apple Pie with a Twist, this one had some lemon juice in it and turned out the best (pictured below in the center), and last but not least a Carmel Apple Pie (pictured below on the right).
Unfortunately I didn't win the Pie Baking Contest, but I still had fun and I'm going to enter the contest again next year. It was so hot yesterday on the 4th that the caramel apple pie turned to mush and the sour cream apple pie didn't do well in the heat.
Besides not winning the contest, Jeff and I enjoyed watching the fireworks show in our hometown. I couldn't believe how many people showed up. It was craziness, but we had a great parking spot and we made an easy exit after the show.
We have been doing a lot of laying around all weekend...
I love long relaxing weekends. I hope everyone else had a great 4th of July!!
