Wednesdays Unplugged – Joan’s Apple Crisp

“Kindness is not an act. It’s a lifestyle.” – Anthony Douglas Williams

NOTE: I spend my Wednesdays Unplugged from appointments. It’s my day to stay home, enjoy cooking and welcome our kids and grandkids for dinner in the evening. We end our meal with quotes from the Norwegian ‘Quote Cup’ passed on to me from my grandmother. I share a quote and a recipe here each week, along with an update and photos of what has been going on in our lives. I love trying new recipes…and love getting recipes you would like to share!

As the leaves created their annual fall color display we spent the last weekend in and out of ER and the hospital.

RECIPE OF THE WEEK

This week’s recipe also comes from Carolyn, from our trip to SE Minnesota. It is apple season! This recipe is for those of you who don’t like a lot of cinnamon… Carolyn said she even used a little less than the recipe calls for.
