Ingredients

  • 2 medium cooking apples, such as granny smith
  • 2 tablespoons raisins
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1 recipe caramel sauce (found here) or 3/4 cup pre-made caramel topping
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2/3 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
Butter a 9x 1 1/2 inch round cake pan.  Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples; arrange in the bottom of the pan.  Sprinkle in raisin and nuts.  Gently spread caramel sauce evenly over fruit and nuts.
In a medium mixing bowl stir together flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder.  Add milk, softened butter, egg, and vanilla.  Beat with an electric mixer on low until combined.  Beat on medium speed for one additional minute.  Batter may have visible flecks of butter.  Spoon batter over caramel layer in pan.
Bake in a 350F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.  Gently run a knife around the edges of the pan to loose cake; invert onto a plate and serve warm.

    Looks yummy!!! I’d love with vanilla ice cream. Perfect for this time of year. Did Nora enjoy?

      She did. Could barely eat her dinner she was so excited about desert. It was probably good that we took it to my friend that just had the baby, because I might have eaten it all that first night!

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
