Hi Jane Page - I keep missing the casserole sales, hopefully I won' t miss this one!
Hey Laura - I love apples and I will definitely enjoy, lol. Have a great weekend!
Hi Gene - I'll see what I can do :)
Hey Paddy - this will be my first time attending--- but I'm sure it will be fun :)
Hi Kara-Apple pie ala mode-Oh you're making me hungry for that. Oh so good. I love going to things like that. I hope you had a nice Halloween and that you have a wonderful weekend. Take care and I'll be talking to you again soon.
Hi Pat. Thanks, I had a nice Halloween - had a party to go to! Hope you had fun too. And the apple fest was good - I got a small serving of apple crisp because I didn't trust myself to have a whole pie in the house, lol. (and I didn't NEED to have a whole pie in the house, lol) They had already sold out all the bushels of apples by the time I got there :(
If anyone is going to NC to get apples..... I like 'gala' apples, hint hint, haha.
OK ~ your pictures of food always make me hungry! That pie looks sooo yummy!!! Hope you had a great Halloween.
Hi Terrie - I was soooo hoping to get a piece of apple pie - but the apple crisp was delicious (just not the same as pie....guess I'll have to go visit my mom to get the good stuff, lol)
I had a very nice Halloween, thanks - hope yours was good too :)
Kara, OK, now you have done it. I require one of these to be sent to me.
Oh wow. That piece of apple crisp has me craving it... with a lot of Reddi Whip! =D This sounds like a lot of fun.
Danny..... you should have said something BEFORE the event was over!! Silly Rabbit :)
Hey Lisa - it was fun, and the apple crisp was great (I LOVE Reddi Whip, too!!!mmmm mmm mmm)
ok - so where is my pie?? If Danny gets one - then I want one too.
Kara, Tricks are for kids, lol.
haha - yes they are Danny, yes they are! (that's what we tell the rabbit anyway, haha)
