Step by step pictures of Norah and her daddy preparing a blueberry pie this summer.


She rolled the bottom crust.
You can see the empty pie pan just waiting to receive it in the background.


The sugar-cinnamon-flour coated fresh berries have been added.
Now she's trimming the edges with her school scissors

Dad cuts the strips for the lattice top.

Brushed with milk and sugar sprinkled on top. Now it's oven ready.


Avril wanted to be part of the action... Maybe next year, Baby.



Want to see photos from blueberry pie day last year?
