Summertime Apple Picking!?

Happy Monday BlogLoves!

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is go apple picking.
     ...Not only is it something to do outside allowing me to enjoy the sunshine and fall-breeze, it also gives me an excuse to bake and cook my bootay off. (As if I actually need an excuse to do so...)

Well yesterday the hubby and I went apple picking with some of our family.
     ...It was great, except it felt like it was mid-summer. Holy heatwave.

Nonetheless it was a good time.
    ...I even bought my first pumpkin of the season. It is not sitting nicely on our front steps!

Last night I was tired but wanted to make something using the many, many apples we had just picked. I mean seriously, how can you go apply picking and then not immediatly make something with said apples?

I decided to slice an apple, add some cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, chocolate chips, and a sliver of butter before baking it in the oven for 45 minutes.

It resulted in an appley-gooey-chocolatey sweet mess that I are in .2 seconds flat.


I love fall!

What did you do this weekend?

  1. What a fun weekend! That apple dessert looks delish! And so simple! I went to a family Birthday Party on Saturday and then spent Sunday house cleaning. I did manage to sneak away to pick up a few mums and pumpkins to decorate the front on my house though!
