Disclaimer: This post is NOT about my love for Apple brand products (iPads, iPhones, iMacs, iPods, etc). No, no it's not. I actually own nothing that Apple has created. It's true. I don't even have iTunes on my computer. But I digress.
I think we've established that I love seasonal items, what with the explosion of pumpkin recipes a few weeks back. Pumpkin isn't all I love about Fall though - I also love anything that has to do with apples. Here are two of my current absolute favorite things:
1. Spiced Cider 3-wick candle from Bath & Body Works. I am convinced that this is what Heaven smells like. Or at least a really nice Hallmark store (which is pretty close to Heaven, if you ask me. I know, I'm crazy...but this is my blog. I'm allowed). If you don't want to spend the 20 bucks on the 3 wick, the store runs sales on the smaller candles, and you can try them in a whole bunch of scents. But trust me...this is the way you want to go.
2. Apple Butter. Of any kind. You can get this at a farmer's market, an orchard, at Cracker Barrel, or on the table at Bob Evans. Or in the jam aisle at the grocery store - Smucker's makes a darn good commercial apple butter. And it's delicious. I've been using it instead of jelly on my peanut butter sandwiches as of late, and that's a trend that will most likely continue until...well...forever.
Try these things - you will love them. You'll get the warm fuzzies. And you're welcome in advance.
