Can The Adults Please Smoke? 36 and Living Well... — Page 166

Girly, they got very excited when I told them you were coming. If they poo or pee from their excitement I'll leave it for you to clean up

Moony, let's dance! *Holds close* I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places....

The IT Guys, Shameless Groveling Division, just came in with German Chocolate cake. Almost all is forgiven. Almost.

I want to leave now! I need to go home and bake for Church. HC and I volunteered for this Sunday's coffee clutch after the service. He baked cookies yesterday and is making an apple tort while I'm at the dentist tomorrow. I'm baking a pumpkin creme bundt cake and a ricotta sweet pie. We even got baby pumpkins to put on the tables that the kids can take afterwards. No time to do any of this on Saturday being we have a pumpkin carving at my accountant's house in the afternoon and seeing CARRIE: The Musical in the evening. I need to lighten up my social calendar.

AND invite me to these plays/musicals!! MWAH!!

Thanks Addy! I will go "like" that page now.

HC picked up a Sugarfree Blueberry cake for us last night. I can't wait to try it! I resisted the temptation of having a piece before I went to bed. Another good tip: don't eat at least 3 hours before you go to bed.

I had to have bought them from you! I wasn't buying from anyone else.

And I just realized it's Nana's, not Grandma's. Surprised Sommsy didn't correct me!

I'm not like that, Girly. Where is Deet this morning?

Addy, if I'm not mistaken, aren't you do to make an apple crumble/crisp?

My parents are coming for a quick visit tomorrow, so I plan on making one before they arrive.

---

Well I'm certainly having problems spelling this morning (here and on Facebook)!! "Due"

I'm looking forward to showing my parents all the photos from my trip.

I just got this instant message at work: "hey - any chance you remember my pizza dip recipe???"

She doesn't remember and I'm tired of making it. LOL!!

Yes, what is this Nana's Apple Cake that you all speak so highly of?

I prefer to make mine from scratch. This is my favorite!

Add water and toss mixture gently with fork until evenly moistened. Gather gently into ball. Transfer to lightly floured board and roll into circle slightly larger than a deep 10-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pan and flute a high edge. Set aside.

Make filling:
Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine apples, sour cream, sugar, flour, egg, vanilla, and salt in large bowl and mix well. Spoon into crust. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking until filling is slightly puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. (If edges of crust begin to brown too quickly, cover with strips of aluminum foil.)

Make topping:
Meanwhile, combine walnuts, flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt in medium bowl and mix well. Blend in butter until mixture is crumbly. Spoon over pie and bake 15 minutes longer.
