*whine* wantpienow *whine*
So I'm making this Ginger Gold pie today. It has three kinds of ginger plus Ginger Gold apples. I take this thing out of the oven and ZOMG my nose is having an orgasm.
And it's an hour to supper time yet. *whine* wantpienow *whine* Sometimes being responsible sucks. Because I'm really tempted to facedive into that dish.
Also in progress is a crockpot full of pork steaks with Granny Smith apples and sliced sweet onion.
Yes, I'm typing up recipes for both of these, which I'll post here if they taste as good as they smell. But ...
*whine* Want. Pie. NOW. *whine*

Do you have a recipe?

I wish I was a guinea pig! :D
Re: Yes!
That goes for friends in general. We tend to feed whomever is in the house when it's mealtime. Also Doug and I enjoy meeting e-friends in meatspace; we usually arrange the first meeting for a coffeehouse or some other public space. I've met e-friends at conventions too. It's a lot of fun. And then some of them show up on our doorstep...

Speaking of baking, you've inspired me to make some brownies this weekend, something that I haven't done in a long, long time. I've also never used this particular recipe before, so if it turns out well I'll post it to the Cheap Cookin' community.
Wow!
I look forward to hearing more about those brownies, too!
Ginger Peach Crunch Pie
6 or 7 large peaches, peeled and sliced
1 box Jiffy brand yellow cake mix (specified by brand because the box contains the perfect amount of mix to make one pie)
1/4 cup candied ginger, chopped (those who love ginger can certainly add more, but 1/4 cup is a good place to start)
1/2 stick of butter, melted
1/4 cup brown sugar (light or dark, your choice)
Plain granulated sugar to taste (depending on how sweet or tangy you want your pie)
Mix the peaches with the plain sugar and ginger and put into a 9-inch pie plate. (And you don't even have to grease it!) Spread the cake mix over the peaches, then spread the brown sugar over the cake mix. Then pour the melted butter over everything. (I like to poke holes along the edges of the pie so the butter can run down to the peaches as well as spread over the crust.) Bake in a 250 degree oven for 2 hours. Yup, that's right - you have to deal with wonderful peachy smells wafting throughout your entire house for all that time until you have pie. It is so worth it, though!
And I'll post the brownie recipe, too, if it comes out successfully! Probably later tonight or tomorrow.
(Note to self: need cooking icon! ;)

*takes out recipe notebook to jot down*
Glad it looks good to you!
(This is actually one of the first pies I learned how to make, so it has a very fond place in my memories. :)

You have the whole house between you and pie.
