Also, I really like the circles on this one. It is very pretty and "mathy" Your apple pie submission for the contest didn't take the beautiful golden brown color that this one did. Was it the crust recipe, or perhaps you photographed them differently?
Also, your two entries for the contest have duplicate text for the whole first page intro. The intro and the crust recipes are identical. Only the filling varies, and only by a little bit.
Perhaps you are trying to "stuff the ballot box" by making as many repetitive entries as you can.
My constructive suggestion is that you take the time to make each of your delicious entries unique so that they will each stand out, separately, on their own merits. Then they will earn both comments and votes from other users and you will be a happy instructables contest winner! :-)
Thank you for your suggestions. I do realize they are very similar, however i didn't see it necessary to reinvent the wheel when i had already written one description. I am a math/ physics person (just got my BS) and am not very skilled or interested in the field of writing. Perhaps i will re-evaluate my submission. I do hope you try this pie, it is DELICIOUS!
