Everyone Can't be George Washington Apple Crumble

I have never made an apple crumble. I didn't know what one should contain, look like, or taste like.  That said, I decided to make Alice's and enter it in our town's annual 4th of July bake-off. The recipe was pretty simple, apples, sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, butter. The problem was that Alice said to core and slice the apples, but omitted the important step of peeling them, which I took the liberty of doing. I am off now to drop the crumble at the judges table, then we have our parade, and the winners are announced afterwards at the big "speeches and awards" event hosted by our mayor. Be sure to tune in tomorrow for the results.

Episode Note: "Everyone Can't Be George Washington" A lesson Peter learns the hard way when he auditions for the role of George Washington in school play but instead, much to his chagrin,  is cast as Benedict Arnold. He tries everything he can think of, including  feigning laryngitis, to try to get out of the role. Mike lectures him on acting like a real Benedict Arnold by betraying his cast mates. Harsh. Peter sees the error in his ways, throws himself into the role, and carries the day like a real yankee doodle dandy. Happy 4th of July.
