Mini Pies

Here is a really easy last minute dessert that is a huge crowd pleaser!



You will need premade pie crusts (the kind you get near the butter) unless of course you want to make your own.  And anything you might want for pie filling (pumpkin, apple etc) as well as one egg white, a circle cookie cutter, and a fork and a spoon.

Lay the pie crusts flat and cut out little mini circles, lay half of them on a cookie sheet, and top them with your pie filling, and cover them with the other half of your tiny circles.  Make sure not to over fill the pies because they will spill out of the sides when you try to close them! Take a fork and pinch them closed! And then take the egg white and cover each little pie so it becomes crispy brown when you bake them.  Bake them for about 20 minutes and you are done!

A secret dark dinner....

The Island Creek Oyster Bar

Loved it.  We will be back!

(Pictured: oysters, clam chowder, tuna carpaccio.
my dinner of lobster roe noodles is missing but was delish!)

My dog is cuter than yours. Sorry.

Lungs Party

I had a lungs party to celebrate my 7th birthday with my lungs because I don't think they will make it to 8 so I wanted to do something special.  The theme was mini, because I love mini things and here are some pictures to recap:

Lots of food and lots of fun had by all!

Would you want to know?

I'm so sorry about my lack of posting! I've been feeling a little under the weather with a crazy sinus infection....UGH! And my lungs are declining I can feel it, so things are taking more effort, I am more tired, sleeping more etc.  I have a visit next Tuesday and I would not be surprised if I was back on the list within the next two months.  Last time I was there my doctor asked me a question that I wanted to ask you all - we were talking about certain scenarious and things that could happen and what would I want in these cases and one of the questions that came up was: if you were dying would you want to know? In other words if I was in multi organ failure and dying and pretty much sedated and not really with it should she wake me up to tell me I am dying.  Would you want to know? At first I was like Oh God No! Because when my mom was dying the last thing I would have EVER done was wake her up to tell her she was dying.  Never would I ever have done that.  But the more I thought about it, the more I wasn't really sure.  What do you think you would want?
