Apples - A Slice of Americano
Whenever someone wants to think of America in a
patriotic, yet sentimental light, they may think of the
Statue of Liberty or the Grand Canyon. Some think 0 f
sports such as baseball and basketball. Your friend may
picture large industrial centers while you imagine picnics
m the country. But there is one thing that seems to
exemplify the American tradition better than any other.
And that is - you guessed it.- the wholesome, warm,
delicious, good ol’ fashioned American apple pie.
Maybe the tradition started with naughty George
Washington when he took an ax to the apple tree, or
maybe with Jchnpy Appleseed. However it began, apple
pie has remained America's most mouth-watering
tradition. So for your pleasure, you will find a recipe for
