A Little Dessert

Here's a quick and easy dessert to make if you just want a few servings (double or triple if you want more):

Apple Puff Pastry Cups

1 Granny Smith apple

1/8 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon butter or margarine

3 frozen Puff Pastry cups

Decorative sugar (optional)

Preheat your oven to 425F. Peel and thinly slice the apple. Melt the butter in a small skillet, adding the sliced apple, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cook the mixture until the apples are soft, remove from heat and set aside.

Arrange the puff pastry cups on a greased cookie sheet, and bake at 425F for 14 minutes. Remove from oven, take off the little disc of pastry on top with a fork, fill the cup with your apple mixture, replace the pastry disc, and bake for 4 more minutes. Makes three servings.

Better than Fried

I cut some chives from the kitchen garden to make garlic-chive baked fries for dinner. This is a great side dish for veggie burgers. Click here for the recipe from Taste of Home.com.

Stuff

After finding this Caron one pound skein of lovely peach yarn in my thrifted lot I raided my stash for two cakes of Mandala in Pegasus, which matches it perfectly. For practice and hand therapy I'm going to make another Worth Street Afghan with this free pattern , but this time I'll use the yarn that was recommended for it plus the one pound skein. I'm not quite ready to do the vintage/recycled linen quilt I had planned (still a bit too nervous about the idea), so I'm going to use some color therapy and make a quilt from these thrifted green fat quarters. I considered doing another Yellow Brick road patchwork pattern, but I might go with a split rail fence like this one.

In the Kitchen Garden

Our strawberries are taking over the kitchen garden, but I don't mind. This week I want to make some strawberry banana nice cream (a vegan version of ice cream) and maybe a chocolate cake with berries and cream for the topping. There's thyme in the garden now, too, which I'll dry and jar for cooking along with the chives and the oregano. Next we'll plant cucumbers, as I use a ton of those in our salads and for snacks.
