Easy as pie

Today, DD helped make her first pie. We made an apple-cranberry pie. I got out the trusty Apple-Peeler-Corer-Slicer and set everything up. DD turned the crank and managed to peel, core and slice 4 of the 5 apples. Pretty good effort for a 3-year old! Then we mixed up the flour, sugar and spices (she had LOTs of fun with that) and then mixed everything together. It got a little messy and it took twice as long as if I had done it myself, but it was a lot of fun - for both of us. Next up is a Chocolate Pecan Pie - not sure how much I will let her help with that one. ;-) I sense a tradition in the making!
