when life gives you apples

I ordered my groceries on line, which I find very convenient, and picked them up yesterday.  There are a few flaws though.  This time I didn't double check my order very carefully before I hit send, and when I started unloading my groceries realized that I now had four large bunches of celery and more potatoes than I will eat in two months.  So, since I hate to waste food, I cooked up a big pot of potato celery soup.  I'll probably never be able to duplicate the recipe.  I just kept dropping in what I thought might taste good and it did.  Then I had some for supper and froze the rest in individual size servings (six to be exact), but that led to another problem.  To make space in my little freezer something else had to go.  I had a couple of pie crusts that had lingered in there much too long so I moved those to the fridge.  Today, since I also had a bountiful supply of apples, I used the crusts and made apple pie.  It's quite good but wouldn't do well in the freezer.  Not really a problem. It seems that apple pie disappears much more quickly than potato celery soup.  Go figure.
