Isn't It Romantic?


You've got to love a man who leaves garden flowers and the secret heart discovered inside a walnut, on a corner of your desk. Everyday expressions like these don't cost much, but speak volumes. Don't wait for Valentine's Day to slip a sweet note or token of affection into your beloved's pocket or under his pillow. Thoughtfulness counts.

Red Delicious Baked Apples

Here's something warm and wonderful for chilly mornings or after-school treats - simple and satisfying; baked apples.

Start with Red Delicious apples. This recipe makes 4 1/2 apples, you can easily double quantities if desired. Preheat oven to 350˚. Oil small baking dish.

2 apples - cored, cut in half and drizzled with fresh lemon juice
2/3 cup quick cooking oats
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 T butter (softened)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 lemon (juice squeezed onto apples, peel for garnish)

Combine ingredients using a fork. Mixture will be crumbly. Stuff into apple halves. Pop into the oven for 30-35 minutes (longer if you use large apples or larger quantities of apples).

Plate and serve warm from the oven, or room temp. Great with Greek yogurt, a glass of milk or a cup of coffee or cocoa. Enjoy!
