I don’t know where that very misguided chart about wearing pants went to, but either way, I fixed it immediately.

In the great words of Homer J. Simpson, “Don’t you hate pants?”

I also have no idea where it went. Weird…

I’m going to take my pants off and get to the bottom of this. Pause.

The Great American Pie Experiment, part seven: 40 minutes later we’re done. Now I have to wait until tomorrow to find out how it tastes.

The Great American Pie Experiment, part six: And boom! In the oven.

The Great American Pie Experiment, part five: A layer of crushed hazelnuts.

The Great American Pie Experiment part four: Everything was going so well. So, so well. Then I had to roll the pastry. I’ve never generally been good at rolling things and I haven’t had much experience with pastry, so it got nasty. I made a rookie error in not letting  my dough warm up. In the end, I kind of mushed everything into the pan. It’s how it tastes that counts, right?

The Great American Pie Experiment part three: in goes the pumpkin, sugar, spice mix, coconut cream and some other stuff that I can’t remember. Here’s the recipe I’m using.

The Great American Pie Experiment, part two: Screw canned pie filling! I’m doing this old school.

The Great American Pie Experiment, part one: I made the dough myself, using this recipe (forget what they say about a dough scraper, you can use a spatula with a sharp end). It was too messy to photograph though. As you can see here, my household is so classy we use wine bottles as rolling pins.
