I can be a stubborn mule at times,
I do not like defeat,
it does not settle too well with me.

So my latest culinary disaster peed me off,
the banoffee pie, however was off limits to me,
the kids were like nah mam, lets not go there,
bananas are for sandwiches, or snacks anyway.

So I baked an apple pie, two in fact,
one without sugar for dad, and one with plenty
for us.

My mad to get me cooking mate, told me
no matter what flour you use, half the amount
of butter, and you cannot go wrong.

Guess what???

She was right the pies where delicious,
and I am redeemed.

Basic foods for a basic gal.
