06:06 pm - Go, apple corer!
I am a disaster with a paring knife. It's only the fact that I make stock from the parings that saves the giant hunks of vegetables and fruits that stay attached to the skins. It also takes me forever, and the results are poor at best. So:
Some months ago, I purchased one of these things: http://www.kk.org/cooltools/archives/apple_corer.jpg
I was dubious, but today I actually gave it a try. Best thing ever. Peelings do tend to have a lot of apple attached, but my apples were old and soft, and that might be less with a fresher apple. It takes the peel off in a spiral, more or less completely, pops out the core, and chops up the apple for me. Six apples - about ten minutes, compared to the half hour or more it would have done before.

I'm gonna make more pie in the future. I can tell.
