Cool, Fall Days Call for Apple Crisp

Posted By Team Latham

As I walked our dog along the creek, I couldn’t help but think of all the things I love about early fall.  I love how the morning air is crisp and cool but the afternoon temperatures are pleasantly warm without all of the humidity we experience in the heat of summer.  I get a kick out of watching children play touch football in our backyard.  I enjoy decorating for fall and picking pumpkins.  I marvel at the number of Monarchs resting on my flowers and delight when I find their eggs on the backside of leaves.  I find beauty in the countryside as crops mature and leaves begin to turn color.

Most of all, I enjoy the fruits of this season.  There’s nothing better than fresh apple cider and all of the wonderful home-made treats that are synonymous (at least to me) with fall harvest.  My mom made the following recipe last weekend, and I thought it was simply delicious.  I hope you’ll agree!
