Yesterday I topped my biggest, steepest, most intimidating piece of ice yet- and it wasn’t that bad! It’s fun being new at something again and having no idea what the day is about to throw at you. ⁣⁣⁣

"It will never work," I was told. "You must use a prosthetic."⁣⁣

I started ice climbing in 2008 with a hacked together prosthetic made in a garage, with a socket meant for canoeing. Sure, of course you needed it to climb ice
You might not ever guess, but I was a forestry major, so I kind of dig plants. Spending my first 25 years in New England has always made me fascinated with plants associated with dry places. I took these with my new old lady point and shoot while in

Apple Pie

October 18, 2016

If you're here, it's because you're an amazing human being who donated to our Gimps4Gold Go Fund Me Campaign (https://www.gofundme.com/gimps4gold)

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Because I couldn't fit it on the sticker label, here are the instructions for your apple pie filling, handmade by the team.

Apple Pie a la Mo:

  • Preheat over to 425*.
  • Put on a smooth jazz collection of music.
  • In pie plate, put 3-5 thin pads of butter on the bottom. This will keep your pie from sticking as well as add some delicious, delicious calories.
  • In a bowl, mix your pie filling with the following options of your choice:
    • For a thicker filling, add 1 tablespoon cornstarch to 1/4 cup cold apple cider or apple juice. Mix well, then add to filling.
    • 3/4 cup instant oats. Yum.
    • 3 tablespoons rum (you definitely want this)
    • 2 pears, cut and sliced (healthier than rum but not as fun)
  • Roll out bottom pie crust into the pie pan, add your filling with your extras, and put on your top pie crust. Don't worry, we won't tell if you use store bought crusts.
  • For extra class, brush top of pie with egg whites and sprinkle with can sugar. Make some slits in the top of the pie to prevent an explosion in your oven.
  • Bake at 425* for 20 minutes, reduce heat to 350*, and bake another 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown. 
  • Eat pie and wash down with the entirety of the leftover rum.

 

We really hope you enjoy, and thank you again for supporting Gimps4Gold. Did you make the best, prettiest pie? Post your picture on instagram with hashtags #gimps4gold and tag me (@moinmountains) to win an extra prize!
