Cran-Apple Pie

November 4, 2011November 4, 2011 Karen @ Crafty Commons

I made this Cranberry Apple pie for my church’s bazaar. It will be served as a dessert with the lunch at the bazaar. It looks and smells soooo good! Unfortunately I will be out of town for a conference and won’t be able to try it. 😦 I have got to make another one so I can have some.

I used Taste of Home’s Cran-Apple Pie recipe. Doesn’t it look yummy!

Trick or Treat!

I carved a couple of pumpkins last night. One was Rapunzel and the other was Linus in the pumpkin patch.

I realize you see Linus and a hole with a skull in the middle. That’s what happens when you make one wrong cut on Rapunzel. Half her face falls off and you wind up with a big hole with a skull shoved inside. You can’t see it but there is a light in the skull so it’s eyes are glowing. I’ve had a lot of compliments on the pumpkins, especially Linus. A couple of guys thought it was a rug rat, which made me feel a little old. The candle in Linus is a cinnamon scented votive so my porch is not only sporting a cute pumpkin, it’s also adding a little aromatherapy!

As usual, not the best pictures. I need to take a class or something.
