After all, they were making themselves right at home. Sometimes we've baked cookies, but usually the window of time that we need to be absent is too long to bake something...we do leave our projector on, running a cool show, and that's been pretty popular. Mostly, though, we've just got to wait it out. Thanks for the luck! Lol, did you get an offer from the people who helped themselves? After all, they were making themselves right at home.

When someone was coming over (paricularly when it was a second visit!), I popped one in the oven, turned it on and we went to the mall while they were in the house. It gave them a chance to relax in the house alone, and the smell is a very, very powerful home memory! It alwaays got us an offer. Best, once when we got home, the pie was missing two pieces - and the dishes were washed! Good luck! It's a tough, tough market, that's all. -Greg I always had two or three frozen apple pies in the ‘fridge while we were selling a house.
