It’s been chilly out for the last couple weeks, which by itself is quite lovely.  The leaves are starting to change, and I can make pumpkin flavored anything without people looking at me weird.

The one bad thing about this time of year is that  even though it can get quite cold in the house, Matt doesn’t want to turn the heat on just yet.  That means it’s been about 60 degrees in my house for over a week, with no chance of heat in site.  To remedy this problem, I’ve been doing tons of laundry – the dryer helps a bit, running my space heater under my desk when I work, wearing ugg boots around the house, taking the hottest showers possible, and most importantly, baking.

One of my favorite things to bake, especially this time of year, is Mamaw’s Apple Pie.  It’s warm and filling, without being as heavy as so many of the pumpkin desserts I like to make.
