So I made an apple pie for Thanksgiving. Follow my train of thought here...While thinking about whether or not making an apple pie for Thanksgiving breaks some code, I was wondering if there were other home-making type things Mom never taught me growing up that she just assumed I knew. Like how to peel an apple. When my sister was home in May, she and Mom were giving me quite a hard time because I don't do it the "right" way. So I thought I'd take a poll. Do you peel towards yourself or away from yourself? (In the interest of not influencing the vote (and in case no one does it my way), I'll (maybe) let you know later how I do it.) :)
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!

I voted toward, but I am asuming you mean with a knife. :) With a peeler I would go away from. (Is that just too obvious?) :) BTW, you are my first blog post ever. :)
Matt just arrived. He says, he didn't see the "I don't peel apples" vote. :)
Well then, I guess Matt's input wouldn't be very useful. :) And yes, I meant with a knife! What kind of person would peel towards with a peeler?!?
Derek asked me, 'Do you have an apple peeler?' when he was trying to figure out how to answer the question. Yikes!
Ok, so I just read these and giggled! :)
Usually the POTATO peeler is not as great an option for peeling apples except in pinches or when your children are helping you. Then peeler definitely beats emergency room run (knife). :)
