Sleepy

The dim autumn mornings have lent themselves to a rare treat; sleep.

Yawn. Blink. Blink.

Man I feel like a 'lazy bones' :o)

Emma and I made apple crisp yesterday. It was delicious! It took every bit of my self control not to eat the whole thing. This is very buttery and I think you could use less butter than the recipe calls for, but it was so good I don't think I would mess with it.

6 Macintosh apples
1 stick butter
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt

Peel and slice (in chunky slices) the apples.
Combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt. Cut in the softened butter.

Place apples in a pie plate or 8x8 pan (or something like it)
Crumble topping on top.

Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
