If you like a

sweet

apple pie

[who doesn't?]

Here's my Recipe

Apple Pie

Peel, Core and thinly slice

approx. 6 apples

[I've used Golden Delicious and Fuji, both turn out great]

Mix with

1 cup Flour

1 1/2 cup Sugar

1/2 cup Brown Sugar

1 tsp. Cinnamon

1/2 tsp. Nutmeg

Pour into a frozen pie crust

[I used Marie Calendar's Deep Dish,]

Nope, I don't make crusts

Crumb Topping,

Mix together

1/2 cup Flour

1/2 cup Brown Sugar

1/4 Butter (stick)

1 tsp. Cinnamon

and sprinkle on top of pie

Bake at 425

35-40 min.

Watch so the top and crust

don't brown too much,

if they do,

cover with foil.

October is...

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Saw this ad in my magazine

last month

I don't know if buying a T-shirt

will help cure

Breast Cancer,

or not.

But I wanted to

Find out.

Don't You?

There are so many ways to

donate to the

Susan G. Komen

fund for the

cure

Salsa

While chatting on the phone with my Sister,

I mentioned I was making Salsa

to go with dinner.

I think she was shocked

out of her stretchy maternity pants.

"You know how to make Salsa?!"

she exclaimed.

{sigh}

I thought she was an adamant

follower of my blog.

(obviously didn't read this post)

I mentioned to her

on several occasions

that I was making salsa for

one thing or another.

All season long.

(Whispering)

[just between you and me],

SHE apparently wasn't paying attention!

Either that,

or maybe she's hard of hearing,

or can't read,

or luny

Anyhoo,

To appease the one Great with Child,

I told her I would give her my recipe

Fresh Salsa

{I don't have measurements, I just do it to taste/quanity}

Tomatoes, chopped (I use Roma)

Chopped Gr. Pepper (for mild)

(You can use a hot pepper, if you want more kick)

chopped Onion,

(red or green), I use whatever I have

1/2-1 tsp. Sugar

chopped Cilantro

Salt and Pepper to taste

Lime Juice

Make ahead of time and refrigerate,

so the flavors can blend.

Experiment with what you have,

No Wrong or Right

with Salsa.

Also try adding black beans, corn,

or fresh, chopped avocado

Doughnut Run

Semi-Annual

Okay, truth be told.

its more than semi-annually.

But we really only have to spill

about our

April and October runs,

right?

Rise & Shout

October 2, 09
BYU Football

We went to check out Sonic's Sponsorship

at the game last night.

I was worried that we would FREEZE,

but my diligence

in seeing that everyone had

at least 17 layers of

Warmth on,

kept us toasty.

{showing off their Y Gear}

C asked if he could get a

"Football Book"

[a program]

and he couldn't take

his eyes off it

Peaches

Eh, What's that YOU say?

"WHAT am I going to DO with Them?"

I'm sorry, What?....

.....DO with Them?

Oh, No, I think we have a bad connection.

Yep, my line is going fuzzy.

Definitely can't hear a word

you're saying-

something about

"mumble, mumble, Make Some...

fuzz, mumble, Peach...mumble, fuzz..."

Yeah, I better go now.

Definitely can't hear a thing you are saying.

Sorry.

Why destroy my Counter's Fragrant Paper Weight?
