House smells of warm spiced apples and downy (have been folding laundry all afternoon). Quiet. Littlest ones sleeping, waiting for older two and gorgeous man to come home from Bible Study at Montebello. A traveling brother from Europe is speaking.



Have started my Christmas movie list...you know, to get into the spirit. The Holiday, The Family Stone, Nothing Like the Holidays, Deck the Halls, A Christmas Story...the list is long. But it is only November, What are your all time favs reader? Is there one out there I have missed..you are challenged to find me a great movie!



Making my famous "Candy Apple Salad" this week. If you can call it a salad! It tastes just like a caramel apple but is easier to eat.



Chop 6 Granny Smith Apples,

stir in 8 oz. cream cheese

and 1/2 cup brown sugar.

Raid the kids Halloween candy,

and add 10 to 12 mini Snickers (chopped).

Thaw a tub a Cool Whip and fold in.

Refridg. until serving.
