NaBloPoMo - August Day 18

Today's HOT topic is Hot Apple Pie. Yummy! There is nothing like a slice of hot apple pie along with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Now that is what I call dessert.

Did you know that apple pie is on the list of American cultural icons?

Two famous quotes about apple pie
"As American as apple pie" - meaning typically American
"For Mom and for apple pie" - the stock answer soldiers during WWII gave when journalists asked why they were going to war.

Do you all like hot apple pie?

Great post!
I prefer cheddar cheese with my apple pie, instead of ice cream.

Hope you get enough caffeine in your system today! Have a GREAT one!

Sue - I never heard of cheddar cheese with apple pie. That is interesting. I'm a apple pie a-la-mode kinda gal. Well you know what, now that I think of it, my hubby's aunt used to snack on apples and cheese all the time. (By that I mean everyday)

I hope you have a great day too! Just think tomorrow you will be off of work finally!!! Enjoy your day & don't work too hard!! Hope you don't have any more shipments.

Who doesn't love apple pies? They are soul food for me. Coffee slut has an interesting variation of it. I've got to try it.

Oh boy I am on a diet and you made me crave for an apple pie:)

Scriber's Web - I know she did have an interesting variation. I want to try it too. I can go for a slice of apple pie right about now. I'm actually looking at the clock amazed that I am up at 12:15am thinking of apple pie. I gotta get up at 5am LOL!
