![]() It was a happy birthday celebration for a dear friend!Ģ021 is upon us, and, arbitrary though it may be, it feels good to move forward. (She’s enjoying it, despite the quizzical look on her face.) I hope she takes after her friend Emery’s love of sriracha and all things spicy someday. Pippa can eat a lot – but not THAT much fried rice. The food service world has been on my heart constantly. This churashi bowl was gorgeous! Eating in a parking lot isn’t always the most picturesque, and we had a chilly day for it, but you’ll never catch me complaining about anything our restaurants have had to do to stay open this year. To continue the Head and the Heart quote I started in that post from 2014, the months turn into years!) (Click the link to see the last photo I posted of Emery on this blog. I love that these two sweet girls are good buddies despite being many years apart in age. And, of course, I made one in a ramekin for Pippa Pip, who helped me make the pastry and thinks there’s hardly anything better than homemade apple pie.Īfter a morning of pie-making, Pippa and I met up with Erin and her daughter Emery for a girls’ sushi lunch. I also had to make a airplane pie-in-a-jar for our Matt (Uncle Teo to Pippa) who was getting ready to go back to his hometown of KC after a few months of writing his dissertation from our dining room table. In addition to two jars for our church friends, I made a pie for my friend Erin (it was her birthday week, hence the included candle). Granny Smith apples, pears, a little bit of cinnamon and nutmeg, lemon juice…a simple, can’t-go-wrong filling. It’s been really great to have the opportunity to give and receive creative gifts and gestures when we aren’t able to see our church family as a whole on a regular basis.) (Over the last eight or nine months of Covid-era-life, our church has had a pairing list to connect families on a weekly basis. I’d added some Granny Smith apples to my Imperfect Foods box the week before, I had streusel topping in the freezer, and I needed a small but meaningful gift to bring over to a couple from church. Sometimes, circumstances collude to create just the right conditions for a batch of mini pies in jars. Hi friends, here’s an everyday sort of pie story for you – catching up from March here (and honestly, patting myself on the back a bit that lately my blog posts have been about fairly recent history.) It feels good to be here and writing for you so regularly.
