I dont make pies much because cooked fruits always triggered my gag reflex as a kid. It's thanksgiving time here in the US, so i have beene trying to bake pies to give out to friends and family.
This is a modified cobbler recipe that i had. I have been having loads of issues getting pie crusts to cooperate with me this month, and this was no exception. They keep coming out dry and flavorless no matter what i do. I've tried store bought, I've tried handmade, and nothing does what i expect it to do. I'm about to get a notebook and go full chemist on my pies to figure out what i am doing wrong. Obviously my weave was doomed from the start as i realized i needed to weave it before putting it on the pie.
On a personal note, i finally got a stable job this week. No more weeknight bartending hoping to make $20 a night. i got a job at a print shop that works with quite literally every organization in the surrounding area. That, coupled with my kittens getting their final round of vaccines this week means i can hopefully end the year on stable footing.
Congrats on the job and the kitties. Let me know when you figure out pie crusts, because I can't do them either.
