Today we headed up north to visit the parents and so Dave & Ian could go to the Aggie game. It wasn’t raining when we got there so Dave & Ian bundled up and headed out. About 45 minutes into the game it started raining cats & dogs. Ian had hoped it would snow because the Aggies were playing Hawaii and we all know people from Hawaii don’t know how to deal with the snow. They do know how to handle the rain though and Dave & Ian toughed sat through a disappointing, wet game.
Meanwhile—at Grandma & Grandpa’s, my dad decided to channel him mother and make a apple pie at 8:00 at night! He enlisted his favorite look-a-like buddy Miles to roll out dough and taste test.
Of course Miles had just had a bath and my dad plopped him, clean jammmies and all, right up on the counter in the middle of the flour dust cloud.
Rolling out the dough was a team effort. It was so fun to hear my dad telling Miles how to use a pastry cutter, how to mix the dough with your fingers, and how to put even pressure on the rolling pin.
It really was a thing of beauty. I bet Grandma was proud!
