I actually baked.
We did not eat an actual dinner
that night, but I actually baked.
Our neighbors upstairs got our
mail and watered our plants while we were out of town. And in response to their
kindness, I forgot to get them a thank you gift.
So instead I made them a blueberry
pie.
It is not quite blueberry season
yet, so I am sure it wasn’t as good as it could have been. Although as I learn
to accept “good enough”, the fact that it smelled scrumptious is enough for me.
I also did not get a picture of
it, but here is the recipe. The thing that I love about it is the lemon juice
and zest. It adds a little tart to the sweetness and juiciness of the
blueberries and cup of sugar. Also, I did a lattice crust cause it is prettier
and I don’t do egg washes cause it is too much work for little payoff. (And this is easy to veganize...just substitute ghee for the butter and leave off the egg wash.)
