Hello everyone! I wanted to give you all my recipe for the perfect all butter pie crust. It's flakey and rich and perfect for all your Holiday pies.

You will need:
3 Sticks of VERY COLD butter
3 cups flour
1 Tsp Salt
5-6 Tbsp ICE WATER
Ok, so the KEY to FLAKEY pastry is to keep it very cold. You need to keep the butter cold, you need to keep the water iced. And make sure you chill it for at least 30 minutes in the fridge before rolling it out. First things first, put your flour in a bowl with the salt. Next, you get your cold butter straight from the fridge and use a pastry cutter rather than your warm hands, and break down the butter with the flour until you have some pieces of butter the size of peas and others are fine. Now make sure you have put a few ice cubes in to your water to keep it as cold as possible. And slowly add in to your butter and flour mix, bringing it together with your hand as you go until it forms a ball. DO NOT put the whole lot of water in at once. You can always add more but you can't take it away. Now press the dough out in to a disk shape and wrap it in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. When you roll it out, make sure you don't do too many rolls. And be quick and keep it cold, You want to see some chunks of butter in there. That's what will make it flakey when it bakes!

You can use this pastry for so many things! Look how rich and buttery it looks on this apple pie!
Joe, who is from Australia, link counts link this Pulsar as his most important watch. It belonged to link his grandfather and was given to nine-year-old Joe after his grandfather's passing in 1994. Today, Joe wears it on occasion, and when he does, it reminds him of both his grandfather and of the moment his father handed it to him.
My mom bought my dad this Omega link years ago, Fitzgerald says, but it wasn't passed down to him in the usual link fashion. "My dad was taking some VHS tapes back to the store when that was a thing and found link a Cartier on the ground. He took out an ad in the local paper and he even got in touch with Cartier to try to track down the owner through the serial number, but nobody turned up as the owner, so he bought my mom the matching ladies' version – and his old Omega came off his wrist and onto mine."
Many of you who know my writing are already well aware that I adore travel and travel watches. link I've crossed the country to review a great GMT, dedicated my chapter link of our recent book to travel watches and, to spend some time with this Aquanaut, I had to link first remove a well worn Rolex Explorer II from my wrist.
