My Pies



Well, today was the Pie Contest at the fair. I ended up entering 4 pies. Did Pretty good.

American Apple Pie-- 3rd place
Banana Pie-- 3rd place
Buttermilk Lemon Pie-- 2nd place
Chocolate Chip Pie-- 3rd place.

My sister entered 4 as well and did great.

Apple Pie- 1st place, Champion over all fruit pies, Grand champion over all pies( BEST PIE in the Contest, 2 years in a row!)

Butterscotch Pie- 1st place

Raisin Pie--1st place

Peach Custard Pie-- 3rd place.

With the pie contest, you get to sit and watch them be judged so you get instant feedback from your pies. It is a lot of fun.

Well thankfully I only have to go to school 1 night a week. It is a very accelerated program for adults with busy lives. And as for the pies, Tuesday night when I got home from school at 10:30 pm, I started baking pies and baked until about 3am, then slept until 7 and got Dean up and ready to go to preschool. Busy!
