📖 1 of 2

My grandmother taught me her recipe for apple pie. It was a family tradition. She had learned it from her mother. I was determined to get it right. We worked together in the kitchen. We peeled apples. We made the crust. The challenge was to roll the dough thin enough. I learned to appreciate how much care goes into cooking. I had a responsibility to write the recipe down. I did not want it to be lost. My grandmother's influence had shaped our family. We had pie every Thanksgiving. Our community was our family.
