The weather is perfect for long walks on the sidewalk, nice breeze through the open windows, and the anticipation of my baby brother's arrival. We're just missing one thing...APPLE CRISP!
We had some visitors for the ISU/IOWA game and around halftime, Grandpa asked if we'd be willing to make some apple crisp. Mom informed him that she didn't have any apples or the ingredients. Do not be afraid Mom, Grandma & Grandpa always come prepared! Yes, they just happened to everything in car! :)
And so we began our assembly line!
"Mom, are you going to take pictures, or actually help!? The sooner you help, the sooner we eat!"
This was my first time making apple crisp, so I was ready and willing to help with whatever!
"I'll make sure you don't drop anything on the floor, Grandpa. I'm know for my cat like reflexes!"
I didn't realize the baking aspect and that it takes about an hour for it to actually bake and then we have to let it cool! And they say dogs can't decipher time!
The time finally came to when we could actually eat! I don't mean to brag or anything since this was my FIRST time making apple crisp, but let me tell you, I have never tasted anything so good...and I've tasted A LOT of things!
"Mom, you realize the longer you keep this in front of me, the longer my mouth waters and you know what that leads too...an extra special ingredient"
Don't worry, I didn't eat all of that...I did share! :)
"So what are the chances of me getting seconds?! I was a really good girl today!"
For all you concerned followers, Mom wouldn't let me eat any of the apple crisp that I made! I only got to lick the spoon which didn't even have any of the good stuff on it!
