Pink Ladies are an eating apple, and lose a lot of flavor when cooked. I can't find a chart online that agrees with me about what apples to use for what [g], but I prefer Galas for baking and Honeycrisps for eating fresh. I just wish Honeycrisps had a longer season [sigh]. They don't store well, and they're gone for the year (you can still find them, but they're not really any good anymore).

Oh, and spend a few bucks on a rolling pin. They're worth it.
