My sister Joan, my mother and I went on an apple trip to Ellijay, Georgia, with 34 friends, the Rah-Rahs (retired and happy) from our church.  And came home with MANY apples.

My daughter Lisette is home for the Thanksgiving holiday and she loves to cook apples. Soon I plan to post her Apple Dumpling recipe.  Today, here is her version of "fried" apples.

She started with six Rome apples, peeled and sliced, and a splash of apple cider (rather than butter).

Then she sprinkled in two tablespoons of brown sugar and sprinkled in some cinnamon.  And cooked it over medium heat for 5 or 6 minutes, until the apples had begun to get soft.

Then we served the apples with scrambled eggs and biscuits (that I made).  We still a some Thanksgiving paper plates for breakfast the day after Thanksgiving.

Notice the pumpkin shaped coffee mug? I was the Pumpkin Queen at our church (the project coordinator for the Pumpkin Patch) for 10 years. I have an AMAZIN
