I will admit I haven’t made this in a while as I just haven’t had the time. There was a time that this was the only pie crust I’d use though. I plan to try my hand at it again soon when I make some Fried Apple Pies.
Pie crusts are always something fun that the kids can help with too. My littles love to get the scraps or ‘extras’ that I cut off the sides. They make their own little pies or designs with them. It’s edible play dough! Continue reading “Whipped Pie Crust”
This filling is good for Fried Apple Pies, over vanilla ice cream, or to use for an Apple Sonker. Continue reading “Apple Pie Filling”
Today was an eventful day in more ways than one. We made it through and the day ended on a good note.
I had seen a couple of posts about square dancing classes. They had grabbed my attention and upon further research I found that they were rather close to me.
I had intended on going last week but things happened, life, and it got pushed to the back burner. Well that almost happened again this week but there was a little voice that kept nagging me to go. So I did!
Guess what? I had a blast. I’ve always loved square dancing and flat footing. It’s been a while, 20+ years, since I’ve done it but it started to come back to me.
I’m not great, probably not even good yet, but I enjoyed myself. I probably looked like a crazy chicken but that’s ok too. I laughed at myself when I kept confusing my left from my right and the hand holding had me completely bumfuzzled the first go round.
After a round or two it got better. But then our partners got changed! Oh my! The thing is that as long as you relax,listen to the directions, and remember to keep moving forward then you’ll be fine!
All in all it was a lot of fun and I look forward to doing it again soon! We all need to take the time to dance every now and then. Slow down and enjoy the music of life.
So grab your partner and do-si-do!
This is not the most authentic enchilada recipe but my kids really enjoy these. Pair it with a salad or rice and beans to make a complete meal. Continue reading “Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas”
These are definitely not super healthy but they are pretty easy to make. They are also a special treat we enjoy from time to time. I’d say you could probably exchange the apples for other fruits as well. Continue reading “Easy Apple Dumplings”
