This was my first try at an apple pie.
It was, as so often happens, nearly a complete disaster, and imperfect in many ways. (Rest assured that I'll tell you all about them). Yet: it was also a success, insofar as deliciousness goes. Yum. Pie is good even when it's bad.
As a pie seeker, I quest for piefection. But in the meantime, this stuff still tastes tasty.
