National Pah Day!

Taking her cue as always from Sis, whose Inspirational Pah Opus is a thing of heart-wrenching beauty, Daughter informed me I too must make Pah. Tonight. Right now.

So using my Go To Gals template I went to town.

Soak the currants in orange juice and bourbon; soak me in bourbon

six Granny Smiths seems to work out about right

core/peel/slice the apples and mix in a bowl with blueberries, cranberries, the drained currants (but reserve the soakage!), some flour, cinnamon, fresh nutmeg, sugar and salt

fill them shells

schmodge together the flour, brown sugar, butter and tablespoon of cinnamon (which ain’t in the recipe)

say hello to Mr. Hanky

now I have no idea how she gets it to crumble when she makes it, as this has the consistency of Play-Doh so I end up armor plating the Pah

and now they’re in the oven so I have several hours to wait to eat.

dang.

   Bing:

   Make sure the butter for the streusel is cold and cut it in with two knives. If you use your hands it will warm the butter and all will glump together.

   That’s a medical term.

   @Dr. Alice. That’s ok. “Gloops” seems to be one too. (Non-med sorts take note, nice info, but might be a bit ‘icky’ to those who don’t have med background).

   And, with a bow to Mr. Bingley: You, sir, are EVIL to those trying to lose weight. Luckily, I, and BOTH those I am caring for, need to GAIN.

   Thank you sir; I think that one will go over well. And even get eaten. (And some of your others have been successes too – please, for those few of us who are being murdered by the gov’s anti everything that could help gain weight. Keep up the good work!

   Oh – but don’t get fat – that’ll just give THEM more ammo. 🙁

    I think you’re right, Doc.

    But I am a glumpist at heart!
