One Thing I Love About Fall

by Kay~Kacey on 10/26/2009

One thing I love about fall? Apples!

Seriously. Crisp, cold apples. These are Granny Smith apples, probably my favorite. Well, except for when I’m baking apple pies. Then I use Jonathan apples. Why? Because my mother and my grandmother made apple pies from Jonathan apples, why else?? :crazy:

Apples are great dipped in caramel. Yum. [I did have dipped in Carmel, you know, like the place in California…] :coffee2:

Apples are also great to dip in my Fabulous Swiss Fondue.  Okay, okay…I confess…it’s SuperGuy’s recipe. I saw that he bought all the ingredients when he went to the grocery store this weekend. (I told you he was a keeper!). I’m hoping he’s going to make it for dinner. No, really, hop on over to that link and check out that recipe. To die for yummy.

Anyway, what was the point of this post???….. Oh, apples…I love ’em. Do you have any to die for apple recipes? I need to dig up my apple crisp recipe and share it with you…

I Win Again

by Kay~Kacey on 10/24/2009

Remember how I told you last year about our ongoing stomp-your-feet argument discussion about the burning bushes in our front yard. SuperGuy keeps wanting to cut them back. Again. The last time was disastrous and I had to wait years and years for them to turn red again. (Yes, it WAS years and years SuperGuy, do not even TRY to say it was only ONE YEAR!) Anyway, I put down my foot again this year…no trimming!

They burned again this year! Now, I realize that they may get as tall as our house at this rate…but I don’t care! I love them in the fall when they turn this brilliant red.

Honestly, how can anyone resist this color?? Love this burning bush!

(note to self: Next time don’t be so lazy. Pull off the macro and put the wide angle lens on to take the full bush shot…yes, the macro wasn’t the best choice for the pullback shot…)

Anyway, I win, I win, I win. No trimming = beautiful burning bush. I was right, wasn’t I?
