I have many favorites, that is why it is hard when people ask me what is your favorite dessert? thing to do? season of year? I love summer, the sun, swimming, vacationing, kids are out of school, etc.
But I also love fall, the beautiful colors of the leaves, Thanksgiving weekend and then the preparations of Christmas, rich in fanily traditions and fun. So, I would say fall is definitely the top of the list. I love the cool crisp air, ok it's a little different now that I'm living in the desert, but it does get cool and crisp in the evening here in the central valley of California. I love taking the family apple picking then making applesauce, apple pie, apple crisp and this year I think I'm going to make apple dumplings, it's been a while since that has graced our harvest table. And oh yes, Geoffrey said he wanted carmel apples this year, speaking of carmel, Victoria and I tried a salted carmel hot chocolate at Starbucks tonight, yum. I'm looking forward to October and making all those apple treats, well maybe at least two of them I always set my expectations a little high.
How about you? what apple treats do you like the most?
Hot apple cider, cooked apples with raisons and carmel over the fire, also to slice an apple in half..layer the peanut butter.. and top off with peanuts...Danyel
