watching Pushing Daisies does seem to induce pie cravings, doesn't it. but then again I'm a pie fan to begin with, and so is my dad. We almost always celebrate birthdays with homemade pies rather than cake. XD
I'm not sure if you were asking or not, but the traditional apple for pie filling is granny smith because they're crisp enough to hold up well to baking. but it's a good idea to microwave them for a little after you've got the filling all mixed (before putting them in the crust) because the crust will often be done before the apples are.
