Quick And Easy Apple Pie Recipe

In honor of fall, I thought I would share the easiest apple pie recipe I know!

Ingredients:

-2 Ready-Made Pie Crusts (usually found in the fridge section by the Pillsbury products)
-5 to 7 Apples (Granny Smith are the most popular for apple pie, but I like to mix a few Granny Smith and a few Fujis)
-1/2 Cup of Sugar
-1tbsp of Cinnamon
-3tsp of Butter (cut into small sections)
-1tsp of Milk (used to glaze the crust)

Directions:

1. Begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Roll out one unbaked pie crust into a 9 inch pie pan. I like to use disposable pie pans because it makes cleaning up easier, but that is totally up to you. If you do use a metal or glass pan, be sure to grease it completely.

2. Peel, core, and slice all of the apples. Make sure slices are thin enough so they're smaller than typical apple slices, but thick enough to not break apart. After apples are prepped, put them in a bowl.

3. Next pour the sugar and cinnamon in the bowl with the apples. Mix apples, sugar, and cinnamon together until all the apples are coated. Then fill the bottom of the pie pan with the spiced apples. It's okay if the apples pile above the brim of the pan, they will bake down in the oven.

4. Place cut butter on top of the apples. There's no specific placement needed for the butter as long as there aren't any huge spaces without butter nearby. Then wet your finger tips with water and run them along the edge of the pie crust, this will make sealing the pie easier.

5. Now put the second pie crust over top over the apples. Close the sides of the pie by pinching together the two crusts. Make sure there aren't any gaps, otherwise apple pie filling will spill out during baking.

6. Finally, dip your fingertips into the milk and run them over the top crust. This will help the top crust bake evenly and get nice and golden. Sprinkle a little bit of sugar on top of the pie, and cut slits in the crust for ventilation.

7. Bake the pie at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Then drop the temperature to 350 degrees and bake for another 30 to 45 minutes. The crust should be golden-brown on the top, but not burnt.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
