Nothing says lovin'...{and Thanksgiving Inspiration}

Like something from the oven...


As the November days grow colder, it's so nice to give your family a homemade tummy warming treat!   After all, pies aren't just for Thanksgiving!

We were all home bound over the weekend with colds, as the rain was pouring down outside and the winds were blowing our giant maple trees in a violent manner that looked as if they might topple over.  With nothing to do, and nowhere to go, I popped in "A Miracle on 34th Street" in the DVD player and headed off to the kitchen to make the guys a special treat...

Homemade Apple Pie


The aromas of nutmeg and cinnamon almost instantly filled the house, 
putting any store-bought candle or infuser to absolute shame!

Mmmmmm!

Too bad no one has invented scratch-and-sniff for computers ;)

My son could hardly wait to sink his teeth into an appley, buttery bite!




Homemade delicious goodness!

This weekend I'll be in the kitchen again...
baking tasty pumpkin concoctions for Thanksgiving :)

Oh and speaking of Thanksgiving -
don't forget to take your turkey's out of the freezer!
