Cherries!!

What's July 4th without a yummy

 Cherry Pie

You know us....Couldn't just go and buy a pie like normal people!

So, here's the Practical Praise version of

"How To Make A Cheery Cherry Pie"

Step One:

Pick some cherries!

~Climb on Daddy to reach the tall ones~

~Don't forget to eat a few~

Step Two:

Take a picture for Grandma

Step Three:

Find a crust recipe that only uses the ingredients you have on hand.....I was out of butter!

Step Four:

Pit your cherries without a Pitter

(Little Messy!)

Step Five:

Make your filling.

Then, place your lattice strips on the pie

but don't actually weave them as directed.

And Bake...



Ta Da!

Step Six:

Whip up some cream for topping

And that's it! Doesn't that sound like fun?!

I have to say, that it was very interesting teaching the guys how to bake...messy but still interesting! I don't know that I will let them in the kitchen again any time soon unless they do the dishes after they are done cooking! Although they do make a mean pie! 

We had a great Family Filled Weekend! Hope you did too!

Happy Cherry Picking!
