Apple and Caramel Fall Treats
I'm addicted to Halloween candy. Every. Single. Year. I can't help myself. The number of trick-or-treaters that we get at our house goes down each year, but what if it goes up again? And what if we run out of candy!? Once we had to run to the store on Halloween night to get more candy because we ran out, and I'm pretty much scarred from that experience. (But in case you're wondering, the candy was already on sale. Bargain!) Now I buy two or three big Costco boxes of mini chocolate bars at the … [Read more...]

It doesn't really leave much room for experimenting with complex flavours. I kind of feel like this apple cranberry pecan salad satisfies my gourmet cravings though. And the flavours are gentle … [Read more...]
