Week In Review: Party Planning, Apples, and Monty Python
It has been raining all week. Texas DESPERATELY needs the rain so it is a very good thing. And with the rain coming down, I think it is a perfect time for us to curl up on the couch and watch Monty Python and the Holy Grail! Just beware of the Knights that say “Ni”!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Another thing that I’m drawn to when the rain is coming down and I’m feeling all cozy inside…APPLES! Apple season is one of my favorite things about fall. And cooking with apples makes me all sorts of happy! Check out Green Door’s apple recipes like Brandied Apple Butter, Baked Apple Crisp, Caramel-Apple Liqueur Infusion and Individual Apple French Toast Bakes. And while you’re at it, make sure to take a look at these other wonderful recipes from fellow bloggers!

Oh you made me smile, I LOVE Monty Python and the Holy Grail, I have probably seen it a hundred times and it still makes me laugh every time. Thank you for the shoutout, Just made some apple cider applesauce (apples make me happy too) to make those loaves.
You’re quite welcome! And yeah…my husband and I can quote it word for word (whether it is playing or not!) 🙂

I love baking with apples, cooking too. I also like when it rains at this time of year, a time when everything starts to get ready for winter.
Indeed! And fall is by far my favorite time of year! 🙂

Simple baked apples with brown sugar and cinamon in the cored out middles are the best! My daughter and husband love Monty Python!
Oh sounds so yummy! 🙂
