Hello recipe lovers,

I've returned, and I wanted to thank you all for your get well wishes, my e-mail was so full of your beautiful get well cards. I wanted to thank you all for the care you all gave me, you are all wonderful readers. As a treat to all of you, my recipe for this week is my homemade apple pie -- my way of saying thank you.

Since Halloween is approaching, it is great time to go to the farm to pick your apples. That's where I go to get apples. I make so many pies at this time because of farm picking, so enjoy....

Before we do begin, my apple pie is homemade from the dough, to the ingredients. So if you need my recipe on how to make dough, drop me an e-mail at luciatheodore@hotmail.com and I will surely send it to you. So let us begin, please spare 1 hour of your time to prepare.

Ingredients needed:

5 Apples ( skin already cut off)
My homemade dough, or your own homemade dough
Nutmeg
Cinnamon
Sugar
Milk
Water (1/3 cup)
Fork
Pie-Dish

Let us begin this treat

FIRST STEP

To begin, your going to need 2 pieces of dough, homemade, in the shape of your pie dish, so prepare that first. Then get the first dough, and place it into your pie dish, as you have already shaped it to dish. Use a fork, and shape the edges of the dough, with the fork.

Get one teaspoon of milk, and place it into the dough of the pie-dish. With 2 fingers, spread it all over the dough. Please make sure its just ONE teaspoon, otherwise you will soak the dough, and it will not be good.

We are going to precook our first pie shell, so set your oven to 350 degrees, and cook for only 5 minutes. Please wait until that is done, your dough should look a little brown now.

Take it out of the oven, and let it cool, while we will go on to the next step

STEP TWO

Get yourself a medium bowl. In the bowl you will put the following:

PLEASE FOLLOW CAREFULLY FOR INGREDIENTS:

Cut your apples in small pieces ( REMEMBER NO SKIN) Put the apples into the bowl.

THE NEXT STEP MUST BE DONE PERFECTLY:

PUT- 1 teaspoon of nutmeg
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 tablespoon of sugar
AND NOW ADD YOUR 1/3 cup of WATER into the bowl, and please mix well, as they are your pie ingredients. Smile, we're almost done!

STEP 3

Now put all your mixed ingredients into the pie shell that is precooked.

You will now get the second dough, that is formed of your pie dish. as that is to cover your pie. Get your fork again, go around the edges, and make sure that BOTH your dough's connect. ( that is very important)

Again, get one teaspoon of milk, and with 2 fingers, go all over the top layer of your dough. Make sure the milk is spread all over the top layer of your dough.

Now get your Nutmeg, Cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle all over the top layer of your pie.

Get your fork once again, and poke a cross form into the top layer of your pie. Set your oven at 350 degrees. Depending on your oven, it will cook from 20 to 30 minutes. You will know when it is done, by the browning of the top layer. Let cool for 7 minutes.

Now comes the enjoying part: Get your whip cream and put it on every slice that you serve. FANTASTIC, you have done a great job. Complicated but wonderful.

Have a great week, and God bless you all.
Love Lucia............................................

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK Friends There are a lot of families that have one person very ill, it's not something easy that can be fulfilled. The ill person becomes easily depressed, what does the world expect of us? To get up, is that what you regret? We are not normal anymore, so shall find our corner and die there? I don't think so. We have a right to live as we are not so different. So don't talk behind our back, we have feelings. Instead ask what you can do to make our day a little easier, and remember, we are not children, but real humanity pain, So please be human and help a human being out, one day it may be you! Love Lucia This is dedicated to 3 special men in my life. MY father in LAW- GEORGE, MY UNCLE JIM, and MY OWN FATHER- PAUL I hope you all begin to feel better, as I worry about the 3 of you, and I care for the 3 of you. Best wishes for your recovery, and I know what you are going through, I'm always by your side, no matter where you are, or where you go. You have left a part of you in my heart and soul. -- LOVE LUCIA
