This time of year, I love to use apples, yummy for the fall !

Apple Crisp ~

4 1/2 cups peeled, cored and sliced apples

2 teaspoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons water

1/2 cup honey

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

3/4 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup rolled oats

4 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Lightly grease a medium casserole dish.

Evenly spread the apple slices in the prepared dish.
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice and water, and pour over the apples.
Drizzle apples with honey, and sprinkle with cinnamon.

In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, flour, oats, and butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over the apples.

Bake 25-30 minutes in the preheated oven, until apples are tender and topping is lightly browned.
Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream !
Caramel apples~
Cut up apples and drizzle caramel over them, who doesn't love a caramel apple and this is much easier to eat !

"I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends,dining on simple bacon,and letting the world roll on as it liked,than to occupy the most splendid post,which any human power can give."

~ Thomas Jefferson ~

And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field.

Exodus 23 : 16

Hello Sweet September !

I am so happy September has arrived.

I'm looking forward to fall decorating, pumpkin patches , leaves changing, baking, and of course the nice cooler weather.

We've had such nice weather this week.

"By all these lovely tokens

September days are here,

With summer’s best of weather

And autumn’s best of cheer."

- Helen Hunt Jackson

"In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year,

bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil.

And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time,

do we get such superb colour effects as from August to November."

- Rose G. Kingsley, The Autumn Garden, 1905

Thank you dear Lord for another September.

Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.

1 Chronicles 29: 13

31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Matthew 6:31-33
