Last night, on a whim, I made the best apple pie of my life. Hands down. No contest. In the battle between myself and myself as cooks- it was delicious.
Of course, sadly, my sister Claire and sister-in-law Paige still make better ones in their sleep.
Ah well. I'm still going to enjoy my pie.
Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and griefs which we endure help us in our marching onward.
Henry Ford (1863 - 1947)
