Apple Pie!!!

Wow...me blogging 2X's in one day!! but I said that I was going to blog about my apple pie that I made. I love baking first and far most! cakes, pies, cookies I love it. There is something about baking and having someone enjoy it and see the smile on there faces and they are really enjoying it!

So when we went apple picking, you purchase the bag for $1.00 and pick your heart away, but be careful carrying them apples back to the beginning is a horror!! Yass!! someone have to carry that heavy bag for you. Why? because you get so excited and pick so many and they are so good.

My great photo shoot!!

Recipe: I used a pie crust from the store ain't no body got time for that making crust!
 pie filing you will need:
6 cups thinly sliced apples ( I used macintosh, green all types)
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 Tbsp. lemon juice (optional)

Combine all the ingredients and cook on stove for 10 minutes, just until the apples and sugars start to caramelize, your house will smell so good. Ok then pour the mixture in the pie crust and bake in oven 400F for 45-50 minutes, then the kicker is I will remove right before its time to take the pie out ant brush the top crust with fresh honey!!! OMG this adds such a flavor.


and there you have it the finish product....get you some butter pecan ice cream or vanilla bean, some cool whip and dive in...

Applewood Orchards are beautiful and the view is breathtaking.


Me and my mom in the Orchards..

Have a great day lovelies

Harvest Time!!

Hello all!! I am back and trying to keep blogging regularly, but we see that's not happening? So it's harvest time and Fall Season, which by the way is my favorite season of them all, besides Christmas and Spring. I love the crisp air that comes with the season, the colors that blossom from the trees what a splendor to see. My husband, mother, best friends Carol and Lisa went apple picking up at Applewood Orchards in Sugerloaf/Warwick NY about one hour and forty five minutes from me. Well my mom it was her first time picking apples since she was a child. We had such a great time!! and the day was beautiful the orchards were half empty because it was so many people picking apples. Families of every nationality it was so nice. We do it every year but bringing along some friends and family just makes if more pleasant.
