On October 24th I resolved to try to make a post every day if I had access to my computer. Made a post to the Clueless Crafter on the 25th. Missed Sunday the 26th. That didn't take long, did it?
So here's the excuse: I didn't have access to my computer.
True, the computer lives in the basement, but I was upstairs baking pies, yummilicious pumpkin pies. Then I made miniature pumpkin tarts with gingersnap crust from the left over pumpkin filling, then with the left over piecrust, I made custard tarts. Then I had to go to my very first Mormon church service because ChosenSister and her spouse were speaking because they're leaving on an 18 month mission. (I miss her already.)
We picked up a mutual friend on the way to the church. After the ward service, it was on to ChosenSister's house for the buffet, for which the pies were baked. After the buffet, we dropped off our passenger and came home, where I started finishing cleaning up the cooking mess. Then the Engineer decided that he needed a light dinner, so I cooked and cleaned up after that, then sat down in my chair to watch the news and finish sewing up baby elf hat number two and fell asleep sitting in my chair with both cats holding me down. By the time I woke up, I decided, that since I had to get up at 7:30 Monday morning, it was too late to go downstairs and turn on the computer.
I think that's a pretty good excuse. Don't you?

I dunno...depends on what pie recipe did you use?
Um... I used the classic WingAndAPrayer recipe; the one I use for most of my cooking. I thought about using yours, but then I would have had to run downstairs, turn on the computer and printer, etc, etc, and in the morning, I'm just not that tech savy (are you buying this?)
And then....well, you would have been on the computer. And not have your excuse.
Wingandaprayer definitely the way to go in this case.
