Hearing you talk makes me feel quite the incapable retard. I always manage to burn my stuff. When the kids were tiny they thought brownies were a dark shade of brown and ate it until they ate brownies at a friends'. They have asked me to stop baking these days. Yours looks quite delicious. :) Baking? Hearing you talk makes me feel quite the incapable retard. I always manage to burn my stuff.

R loved it, as I could see when he came back for a second helping within 5 minutes and polished off 1/3rd of the pie :) <strong>Cynic</strong>: actually, your husband has described the exact method for baking :) <strong>nehavish</strong>: I can never remember the moong dal to rice ratio (for pongal). So I and R would argue over what the ratio was, until one of us would decide, "let's call home and find out". Then we'd argue over whose Mom to call :) <strong>usha</strong>: That's the beauty, it doesn't matter what apples you choose. You are going to cut them up anyway (I cut them in 1" squares) and they will all melt in the oven and form the filling. <strong>Viv</strong>: Thanks for the poem. Well, I did spend 2 years of my life near General Grant's Tomb. Do you think that makes me a domiciled Yank? dipali: It came out very well.

I am going to try this - but I am such a baking idiot, you'll have to tell me how to select apples for the pie - firm ones, soft ones what? And Pongal - well it is almost rice with dal and some tadka. My god – that unbaked pie looks so yum I could have finished it and saved some electricity.

Yum! Somehow, still haven't got my wits around baking. Maybe some simple stuff. But pongal? Are you kidding.. it's so simple! :) It was one of the first dishes I "mastered". Other than hot water.

How was it? Did R like it? I'd have to make the pie crust from scratch, so I think I'll just admire your apple pie:) It looks positively scrumptious. How was it? Did R like it?
