Whining

I just dropped a pie. I ate some of what fell on the floor and it was delicious. You take 6 honeycrisp or fuji apples, slice them very fine, and cook them delicately in lots of almond oil, until they have that crisp texture promising a bit of crunch yielding to sweetness. Then mix and add 3 T sugar, juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 1/2 T flour, 1 T port, 1/2 t vanilla extractg, 1/2 t Fimo balsamic vinegar, 1/4 t black pepper, 1/4 t salt, 1/4 t freshly ground cinnamon, and pinches each of freshly ground nutmeg and cloves. Cook it in a pie shell, first at 450 for 10 minutes, then at 350 for 30. Meanwhile make the blackberry glaze: gently cook 1 c. blackberries with 1 1/2 T sugar, and then press through a sieve. Then drop pie on floor.
