My husband is an excellent cook, and when we were first dating, I was very nervous about making a meal for him.
The first time I cooked for him was a dinner at my apartment. As part of the meal, I wanted to make him an apple pie, which is his favorite dessert.
I didn’t have a lot of time to cook the entire dinner so I bought a frozen pie crust from the grocery store, and I consulted a recipe I had found on the Internet.
I had never made a pie before, but I baked cakes and cookies frequently so I was confident that I would succeed.
Ah, hubris.
