i mean, i am still working on the half of my weight in apples that i picked a couple weeks ago, considering i crippled my hand at work it hasn't exactly been easy to do anything, you know, like peel, cut, roll, knead.....
but i did it anyway. my hand kind of hates me right now. i am getting ready to take a drive too, so i can't see this going too well.
i have only got a quick few minutes to type. i know, i am a slacker too, since it's thursday and NOT wednesday. i have had a lot of things going on. mostly work. i don't really care to close much, but what can i do. i can't even get my 32 hours so i'll take what i can get.
aren't these cute? at least the little ones. i've been dying to use these little loaf pans for something since they are tiny, and tiny is win all the way around. i am bringing the mini pie to kristen. the two crisps are staying home (i cut too many apples, so the extras i threw into a loaf pan with some rasperries and blueberries with the rest of the crisp topping).
my apartment smells amazing right now.
like, i wish it would smell like this every day.
i didn't have any special recipe for these, surprisingly. i chopped up the apples, added a 3 tbsp sugar, probably 1/4c flour, a couple shakes of nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and 1/4tsp cinnamon to the apples. oh, and a couple capfuls of lemon juice. stir the f*ck outta that til its covered. the crisp? brown sugar, flour, a packet of maple oatmeal, and some maple syrup. mix the f*ck outta that til it's clumpy and sticks to your hands!! smush it on top of your apples and blast that sh*t with your laser vision!! i mean, bake at 375 for about 45 minutes. yep. deliciousness.
i love my little leaf cutout too. yay fall!
so aside from work being a pain, (you know, the usual, no hours to do anything or have any help) i got sent to the doctors on tuesday because my hand was a work accident. i got a new brace to keep it steady, and some anti-inflammatory meds that i have not picked up yet. the brace makes it hard to do any kind of work, like i mentioned earlier. cleaning and stuff is included.
my doctors office selfie. yeah buddy. oh, but i took the brace off and have been cleaning since about 7:00 this morning. why? didnt much feel like going back to sleep after i woke up with ron to make him his lunch and tea. i probably wouldn't have been able to sleep anyway. so here i am. cleaning and baking, and making my hand that much worse.
its what i do. like a boss.
and because i know you all can't get enough of crazy bird lady time. this was last night as i was trying to put them to bed. i can't pay attention to one and not the other, so cosmo was vibrating on my shoulder, and satch was preening my arm and brace, while snuggling in my arm. as much of a pain that they are, i love them both.
so anyway, my pie and crisps are done!
yeah, the crisp isn't as pretty looking as the pie, but add some vanilla ice cream and you will be all set. yeahhh buddy.
well, work aside, i will try to post again sunday, hopefully with more things. thanks for reading!
