Apple Pie

Apple Pie

Tonight all the Post's will be at our place for a turkey dinner. I made homemade apple pie for dessert. Here are a couple pictures of my 2 pies. I put one in the freezer for another time. Grandma Fischer always says to freeze a pie just in case you get company. Art is allergic to cinnamon, so I didn't sprinkle cinnamon on the pie I am making tonight.

I love the pie crust recipe. It's so flake and yummy! Here is the recipe.

1 t. salt

1 1/2 c. shortening
