Productivity. A Clean Garage

Sunday I:

*cleaned out the garage
*had Mr. Knitty install new shelves for me
*put everything back, clearly labeled
*swept it all out
*tossed stuff we didn't need, and relocated some other stuff
*roasted 2 chickens (this is not related to the garage)
*baked 2 apple pies
*knit 2 inches on a sock

This morning as I carried my "work fish" Juanita through the garage to put her in the car, I showed her how nice the garage looked, and how nice it was that I could open the passenger side door to put her bowl in the car rather than having to reach across. I'm sure she said "It looks lovely, Mom!" but it just sounded kinda like "blublblubbby". Such as it is with fish.

In lieu of a photograph, I give you instead the recipe for:

Knittykat's Busy Day Apple Pie
1 prepared deep dish pie shell
3-5 apples, chopped in small pieces
3/4 stick of butter
1 cup Bisquick
1/4 c. sugar
1/2 t. cinnamon

Place chopped apples in pie shell. Leaving the skins on is faster and gives the pie filling a pretty red blush. Cut butter, Bisquick, sugar, and cinnamon together until crumbly and well combined. Put mixture on top of apples in pie shell, covering as much of the apples as possible. Bake for about 1 hour at 350 degrees or until the top is nice and golden. The temperature allows you to bake the pies while other things are baking to save time. This recipe is easily doubled to make two pies; since pie shells usually come two to a package.

    MAN, I wish I wasn't on a diet, that recipe sounds yummy! I also wanted to say I love the sweater you are finished on below. Is that your own pattern? You look like you have skills when it comes to the needles, and would love to have your insight at my new knitting board: http://tightknitfriends.com/forums

    I hope to get to meet you there, and get to learn more from your skills.
