It’s apple season! Wait, no it’s not. But, that doesn’t matter, does it? No! It doesn’t! What time of the year is the best time to bake your favorite (or soon to be new favorite) apple recipes? Anytime you’ve made a run for a jumbo bag of organic apples, that’s when! Wadda ya know…I just …
I’m always…ALWAYS!…on the hunt for a new brownie recipe; they are a family favorite.

Fresh or frozen works, but because it’s summer and fruit is a’plenty, …
Oh, mah babies. THIS. This cobbler came out of my oven smelling of sweet summer fruit and light cakey droolgoodness. I had to remind myself not to take a bite until it had cooled enough so it wouldn’t remove the skin from the roof of my mouth. THE TORTURE! As a good Southern gal, I …
