This is how it looks before baking.  Not so crispy.  We need to change that with a bit of oven action.  😉

These happy little chubsters made their grand entrance at the grocery store on 8/22.  And, fall doesn’t even officially start until September 22nd!

Talk about being early to the party. 🙂  At least they’re a jovial bunch!

With this post, I just need to warn you ~ I’m not even {thiscloseto being done with my apple recipes yet.  I just got started!  Are you sure you’re ready for apple recipes galore???

Apple Crisp | Inspiration KitchenI’ll let the grocery store continue to push pumpkins.  There’s plenty of time for pumpkin recipes later.  🙂

I have to admit, I was almost tempted to take the little cone head one home.  He looks like he’d fit in here ~ he’s so happy!   Then, I could say all proud-like “Yea, that’s my kid, there in the middle!”  🙂

Enjoy!
