Okay yesterday I tired my first attempt, at making home made apple pie including pie crust from scratch. After making the dough for the pie I placed it in the fridge to cool for about 4 hours, and then left to go and get me a hair cut, which turned out not too bad but it wasn't exactly how I wanted it. So I got home after my hair cut and picking up a wrist brace, for my wrist I injured about two weeks ago, then got to making the pie filling, which was going well until, I had to mix the stuff to go on the apples. That turned out really bad, which was a result of me subsituting sugar with splenda, never do that! It turns the mixture into a taffy like substance!
So then my parents had to run to the store pick up sugar,because we were out of sugar, then hurry back home so I could make it the right way.
Well I must say after all that I finally got the pie baked and finished around 9:30 p.m. but the pie was a success, it tasted really good, and it had a flaky pie crust to go with it!
Today on the other hand well lets just say I have had a really bad nose bleed! Also I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the pie so I wont be able to show it, but I might be albe to post photos of my new hair cut, if I can find the cord to my phone!

Congratulations on the Apple Pie. I thought I would share a story about your Great Grandmother. She wanted to learn to make a really flaky pie crust. Picture in your mind a log home overlooking a lake on a ranch. The kitchen door went out the end of the log home to an open yard and there were a couple of dogs (Mickey & ?), some chickens and the barn in the distance. Your Great-Grandmother set out to make a flaky pie crust by experimenting. When your Great-Grandpa came home there were two dogs who lay moaning on the ground and several pie crusts laying around. BUT, your Great-Grandmother made the very best pies and her pecan pie was to die for. Grandma G.
