I promised this recipe to you in September, then never got to it as Autumn Jubilee took over the blog for a month. Before the harvest season is over, I wanted to share it, although we can usually find apples year round. Living in an apple growing county, we think of this as a fall …

Fun at the Mountain State Fair 2019
The NC Mountain State Fair ended yesterday, and I will be picking up all my entries today. On Labor Day I turned in my projects in crafts, quilting, and photography, but due to our trip I couldn't enter the gardening competitions this year. I got home just in time to enter the last three cooking …
Apple Tablescape
Apple Festival weekend starts today, a four-day, annual, Labor Day weekend event, done like only a small town can do it. It is the end of summer, and almost time for my favorite season, autumn, but not quite yet. So, an apple tablescape is in order once again. I put this one together using only …
Apple Tablescape
September has arrived, and although it is technically still summer, Labor Day weekend marks the beginning of autumn for me. This is the weekend of the Apple Festival, our biggest event of the year.

Honey Crisp Applesauce with Cinnamon
When went to the Apple Festival, we came home with far too many apples. It is easy to do when they all look so scrumptious! However, we cannot eat them all fast enough (I like apples with peanut butter), and even baking Caramel Apple Coffee Cakes didn't use them all. The ones that were left …
Caramel Apple Coffee Cake
I have been working on this apple coffee cake for a bit now, this is my third try and I finally got it right. It is a good thing that I had a lot of apples from the Apple Festival, LOL! The first recipe didn't get cooked all the way through, even though I baked …
Apple Festival 2015
This weekend is the Apple Festival in my small town of Hendersonville, North Carolina. I have a great time here every year, looking at the wonderful craft vendors that line the streets, enjoying the various entertainments, but most of all visiting the apple grower's booths. Last year I showed you lots of close up apple …
Apple Cake Donuts
Other than pumpkin, it is apples that have the taste of autumn. So, here are apple donuts on a pumpkin plate. These apple cake donuts are lightly spiced with cinnamon, and have a fresh apple flavor in a really moist donut, perfect for a weekend treat. I have been trying to get this recipe right …
Apple Festival 2014
One of the highlights of the year around here is the annual Apple Festival held every Labor Day Weekend. It is four days of fun, three with vendors and shows on the stage in front of the courthouse, and then the King Apple Parade on Monday. Henderson county grows 85% of the apples in the …
Dog Days of August
It was a cool morning in August last Sunday, so I did a little garden cleanup. I needed to do some weeding, and clean out the dead flower spikes from the day lilies. I am pleased with the flowers this year, but the vegetables have been a complete bust. In case you all think I …
