Squirrel Pot Pie

Here it is!  The last apple on the tree.  After a full growing season which produced "Dozens" of apples on our solitary apple tree, we are left with just this ONE.  The problem was not the heat, or the drought, or even Hurricane Earl (he was a no-show).  No, the problem was those pesky squirrels.  They have systematically pilfered all but one apple off our tree throughout the year.  One at a time, slowly and methodically, dislodging and disembarking with all our delicious fruit.  No fresh, homemade, out-of-the-backyard, apple pies this year.

The only solution to this situation is "Squirrel Pot Pie!"  My dear wife has made them before.  It takes about seven of those little tree rats to make a good pie.  Add some potatoes & carrots and whip up a nice creamy sauce for the filling and it's wonderful.  I know that if we were to bake a few squirrel pot pies we would certainly have a few apple pies to serve for dessert.

Getting control over our problem critters will alway lead to fruitfulness & abundance.  Take a look at your fruit and see if there is something eating away at the crop that God has intended for you to enjoy.  It's time for some squirrel pot pie!
