DoAheads, I’m super excited to post the first ever DoAhead Vlog (video blog). I have recipes I’ve been wanting to share but it so much easier to show than tell. Today it’s tips for rolling out a homemade pie-crust. Since a few of you may be interested in pies this Christmas I thought I’d better post this early.

I have a few disclaimers for the video:

We filmed the day before Thanksgiving. We’d been making pies for 5 hours, ran out of ingredients three different times, and had two near-fail pies. Our pie making Mojo was missing that day. If I’m incoherent during the video there’s a reason for it.
Vidal Sassoon would not be impressed with my pony tails.
It takes 12 minutes. Fast forward if you need to, but if you’ve never done a homemade crust the tips will help…I promise!
I blink like a frog in a hailstorm. If it’s distracting by all means shut the video off and go straight to the recipe!
