neighbourly apples

Applepie1

Another reason why I love this time of year – apples from our neighbours tree (gifted, not scrumped) for an autumnal apple and cinnamon pie. Perfect for warming the cockles after a wet and windy Remembrance Day parade with Amy’s Brownie pack.

Enjoy what’s left of the weekend.

PS: scrump, Verb. Brit dialect to steal (apples) from an orchard or garden [variant of scrimp]

  1. Yum. My blackbird has gone astray moved! I can’t believe he was naughty enough to hide in the boxes that went for storage but i live in hope!
    Thunderstorms and lightning for the rememberance here…1 very soggy cub and 1 “even my knickers are wet” brownie!

  2. Mmmmm that apple pie looks delicious!! We’ve been hiding away from the wind and the wet today, making butter biscuits and watching films. I’ll be sad to go back to work tomorrow!!

  3. Thank you for the new addition to my British vocabulary! “Scrump” My husband is from Scotland. I’ve learned so many more British terms, especially since we had our wee one. Ha! Love reading your blog! Your work is especially wonderful!

  4. Whoops, I think I jut made an empty comment … so what’s new? 😀
    That pie looks so lovely – cinnamon is just right for this time of year isn’t it? I made a cake with cinammon in it this morning.
    The weather is miserable here today – hope it’s better where you are.

  5. Hi Julie,
    Your pie looks so lovely. I come from a family of orchardists. There is nothing like apple pies in my opinion. Well apples in general really. I like mine at room temperature, even a little warm. Just like they are when you pick them off the tree! Sorry to read about the hassles with the calenders. I was REALLY looking forward to one for Christmas….maybe next year! Jen

  6. Hi, Julie!
    Now, THAT is one gorgeous pie! You’re just as great at baking as you are at knitting. There’s a big bag of apples sitting on the countertop in the kitchen, and you’ve just inspired me! Jim will be glad to hear it! Love your blog…
    Hugs,
    Dianne

  7. The little thingie in the middle of it looks kind of interesting. Does it do anything or is it just a cute addition? I am confused! BUT the pie looks yummy!
