Caramel Apple Pie

While my 1st attempt at making Apple Pie was not a full failure, it was not the prettiest site, as all of the edges were burnt...completely black.

I made another pie yesterday, which I covered with foil while baking, and had a great turnout! We even started eating it before I remember to take a picture, so here it is partially eaten!

I used a frozen pie crust and filled it with the apple mixture (recipe below) and then covered with a Pillsburry Rolled Pie Crust that I cut into pieces and created a lattice pie topper. I then drizzled caramel on top while the pie was still warm so that it would soak in. The finished project...delicious! Even my husband (a pie snob) loved it.

Apple Mixture (Recipe from Pillsbury)

6 Cups Thinly Sliced, Peeled Apples
3/4 Cup Sugar
2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
3/4 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Nutmeg
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice

Mix All Ingredients Together and Spoon Into Pie Crust, Cover with 2nd Crust (Need Slits or Designs Cut Into Crust to Allow Apples to Bake) and Put in Oven for 40 - 45 minutes at 425F.

A Week of Golf

In 2017 my team was tasked with exciting job of catering to the LPGA Marathon Classic for their week long golf tournament here in town. We had less then 4 months to prepare, and we had never done anything on such a large scale before. It was both exhilarating and terrifying, especially for an Enneagram 6 like me. We are loyal and committed, but our biggest needs are security, and we fear not having the support and guidance needed. What a way to walk into a task like this. I was suddenly tasked with finding organizations to fill close to 200 shifts for concession stands, as well as around 75 employees to help me make this event a reality. It took a lot of time, planning, questions, stress, and a roller coaster of emotions, but we did it! It was amazing the feeling that you have after you accomplish something like that. Since then we have continued to receive this job each July, and each year has gotten a little easier. We have ha...

Weekly Menu Plan

This week has already been changed around again and again from my husband being in town, to leaving, to coming home early, to leaving again, so the menu plan has been changing, but that is the great thing about having food in the pantry & freezer! Since I didn't get around to making "Cheese" Soup last week, I made it last night. While it was an interesting batch of ingredients, it turned out to be quite delicious! I will post my version of the recipe tomorrow! This week we plan to eat at work everyday for lunch, or to finish up leftovers from the fridge, so even less menu planning! For dinners I am making the following: Taco Salads "Cheese" Soup Loaded Nachos Steamed Vegetables and Crescent Rolls (My husband can live on vegetables alone!) This month is busy at work, and I am having company this weekend, and traveling next weekend so I won't be doing any freezer cooking for a little while, but I am hoping to do a few large freezer cooking s...
