He requested Dutch Apple Pie which is no surprise as I know it is a favorite. I pulled out the copy of Grandma Lizzie’s recipe but doubled the crumb topping and probably added more apples. They cook down, right? And I didn’t want a few left in the bag!
(I’ve used various recipes for Dutch Apple pie over our married life but none of them are ever as good as Grandma Lizzie’s! I said that was because she put in grandma love which I can’t do! He has good memories of her and another cousin has confirmed what a good cook she was! But usually w/o a recipe so who knows how much she used the recipe I have that is labeled as hers!)
Thankfully I had a pan underneath to catch the drips near the end of cooking.
Yummy!!
We went to Miss K’s to get a good and new dinner out on Sunday. She suggested a BBQ place where she had been before. It was cold & rainy from the time we left home until the time we got back home! So our idea of walking around wasn’t so grand. She drove to lunch ~
Dino’s BBQ. Yummy and fun decor!
I really thought a pre-order for Easter dinner cooked by them, picked up & delivered home by Miss K would have been lovely!! 🙂 I’m sure the in-laws wouldn’t have enjoyed as much as the rest of us. It was a fun idea for me to dream!
Time together needs a photo! Love these times!!
After lunch, we thought we’d help get her groceries for the week and have extra hands for carrying but the parking lot was full and the rain was strong so we skipped that and headed to a new ice cream shoppe near her house. Yummy! This new ice cream habit I’ve developed isn’t a good idea!!
JP sent a 4′ T-square and a new fangled tape measure and he will put them to good use on our flooring project!
Miss K had new shirts for him for spring & summer. She is great at getting all of us new clothes!
and sew on... 
That pie looks good and ice cream sounds good!
Yes, it was all good! The birthday man would have loved if I’d remember to have ice cream at the house to go with the pie. But the ice cream shoppe (old style) was really yummy!
