White Sangria Popsicles

I'm so fighting the end of summer......I can't believe the girls start school in less than two weeks.  We have had such a fun summer, although I'd be telling a lie if I didn't say there is a part of me (ok a big part) that is so looking forward to dropping them off to school!!    But still, there are a few more lazy days of summer and I'm determined to enjoy every last bit of it.

So to keep me in my summer state of mind, I'm sharing with you a popsicle made for the grown-ups and perfect for a summer evening or day!!

You can find the recipe here.

APPLES GALORE!

What's fall without apples......and, if you don't already know, it's apple picking season right now.  So last weekend the girls and I were off to Homestead Farms in Poolesville, MD for our annual apple picking!

 We had a blast and after 20lbs of apples picked, they were exhausted.  That certainly didn't deter them from nibbling along the way!

With that many apples, I went in search of recipes that would do our Pink Ladies, Jazz, Fuji, and Empire apples justice.

So here are some mouth-watering apple recipes to take you through the fall!

Baked Brie en Croute with Apple Compote

Toasted Turkey, Brie, and Apple Sandwich...yum!

 Apple Dumplings..

Apples and Walnuts with Stilton Cheese

Apple Stuffed French Toast

Caramel Apples

Gorgonzola, Apple, Toasted Pecan Filo Roll

Apple Cranberry Galette

We made the apple dumplings, and added fresh whipped cream...delicious! We also made the caramel apples for an after-school snack....also quite yummy and somewhat healthy :)

Let me know which one you try!
