i hadn't made an apple pie since last september. the month my grandmother was born. the month that she died. and now a whole year has gone by without her.
i knew i could always find homemade apple pie on her kitchen counter no matter what day of the week it was. and i always knew that it would be the best apple pie i had ever tasted. my apple pie can't even come close. but it gives me a goal to aim towards. in her memory.
gram's swedish apple pie recipe

Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog!
Those apples....yum!! There is nothing like a homemade pie and nothing like grandmothers' pies.
Yay-so nice to see the SAP recipe here. But I have the best version at home--the one written in your handwriting that I demanded from you after you brought over one of these gems after my own gram passed away. It's a treasure--just like you and those grams!
