Just about every week, I attend a Buddhist meditation class with my friend. Neither of us are actually Buddhist, but we both enjoy learning how to meditate, learning how to take more control of our mental activity, and listening to a talk on a more spiritual approach to everyday life. However, as we were leaving her house to attend the class last night, I blurted out the start of this conversaion:Apple Pie
Fresh Granny Smith apples are peeled and sliced wafer thin and tossed with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and piled 4" high into a sweet dough crust, and finished with a crumble streusal topping and lemon glaze.
I'm kinda not into Buddha right now.
Me either, but I didn't want to say anything. ...pause... Let's play hookey.
You mean, ditch Buddha?!
Ditch him! And go to the movies!
Or go get dessert!
Let's dessert for dessert!
So we walked to Alcove and split ourselves a pie of this description:
Fresh Granny Smith apples are peeled and sliced wafer thin and tossed with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and piled 4" high into a sweet dough crust, and finished with a crumble streusal topping and lemon glaze.
I hope you didn't miss the part where it says 4" high because it was so high, a small child could fall off the crust and hurt himself. And I realized that if you're going to dessert Buddha, dessert him with pie.
And looking at Buddha, he sure must enjoy his pie! ;]
