Greetings!
Spring is officially here, and I am so excited. I look forward to longer days, warm sunshine, walks with my children. Frankly, I just look forward to being outside. After being cooped up for the winter months, I am ready to explore and garden!
This newsletter has some great tips and ideas to help you celebrate spring the way it was meant to be celebrated. Recipes, crafts, decorating ideas, and more--you should find all you need right here!
Speaking of being outside more, camping season is also right around the corner. I have a wonderful E-Book in the works that you will just not want to miss! It's all about camping. But more on that later. I promise to keep you posted!
Happy Spring, Friends!

In the Kitchen

 Photo courtesy of Jennifer Sikora If you love The Pioneer Woman Cookbook, you will love this recipe! It is so rustic and quick to throw together! The recipe in the book makes two pies, but I halved it and added caramel on mine which makes it taste--YUM!
Ingredients: 5 Granny Smith
apples, peeled and
sliced
2 tablespoons of flour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice 1/2
cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1/4 teaspoon of salt 1 package of refrigerated pie crust or make homemade pie crust 1/2
stick of butter
Directions: 1.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 2. Stir together apples, flour,
lemon juice, sugars, and salt. Set aside. 3. Roll out pie
crusts into large circles and place on a baking sheets. 4.
Place half apple mixture on one crust and the remaining on the other. 5.
Fold over the edges of the crust so that it covers 2-3 inches of the
apple mixture. (Make it look very rustic)!
6. Dot the tops
of the pies with chunks of butter. Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden
and bubble. Drizzle melted caramel over the pie and then slice with pizza cutter and serve in wedges.
This is the perfect spring dessert!
