The wonder of this time of year is that every single day looks a little bit different. Oh, how I love it.<br /><br />Clair, I am so very pleased when someone tries a recipe. Thank you.

Funny that I've grown to prefer reading recipes from a monitor rather than from a book. <br /><br />It was delicious, by the way, and so fragrant when baking on a fall afternoon. <br /><br />You asked how I know which posts are drawing readers on my blog--I've emailed you about the widget I'm using to track visitors.clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-35754893551809335432009-09-28T11:20:33.333-04:002009-09-28T11:20:33.333-04:00I found this apple recipe very interesting.

I actually came over to look at the apple crisp recipe again as I'd like to try that and found this one. I think I'm sticking with the crisp. Thanks for the reminder about Gladys Taber. I haven't read anything of hers in years but I've missed her. Also, I love your pictures of red leaves. Here in the midwest our leaves are still greenish yellow.Margot at Joyfully Retiredhttp://joyfullyretired.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-65721373290766226552009-09-28T10:54:38.124-04:002009-09-28T10:54:38.124-04:00Diary Farmer, taking off calories is overrated. :&...Diary Farmer, taking off calories is overrated. :<)<br /><br />Sarah, lucky you! I 'met' her about twenty years ago and still have so many books of hers to read.<br /><br />Oh, Clair, that is so touching. I understand completely. No celebration that I know of. I'll have to come look at your 'Gladys posts.' I just haven't had time to visit all the blogs I love often enough. How do you find out which posts are drawing readers?? I think the apple crisp is better, though GT's apple dessert was fine.<br /><br />Okay, Jeff, this is now the second comment you've left mentioning a dessert. The first was the key lime pie. Maybe you could post the recipes for both on your blog, please?!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-37334705039744504342009-09-28T08:26:15.749-04:002009-09-28T08:26:15.749-04:00It is kind of odd not to have any fat in it - the ...It is kind of odd not to have any fat in it - the egg would do it but not the same as butter. And with just the juice of the apples, I'd think you would get something that would be too dry. Unless that was the intent.<br /><br />I started out looking for another edition of this recipe and found myself buried in Stillmeadow references. Hadn't known of Gladys Taber before but will be looking for some of her books now...thanks for leading me to her!<br /><br />Made linzer torte cookies with my daughter yesterday...lots of butter... :)<br /><br />- J.Jeffhttp://www.lazarusdodge.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-81982902618547573712009-09-27T18:08:13.767-04:002009-09-27T18:08:13.767-04:00Nan, I'm sure that you are right about Gladys ...Nan, I'm sure that you are right about Gladys being a blogger at heart. If only she were still here today, just think how much fun it would be, knowing we were her fellow bloggers!<br /><br />I've probably mentioned this before, but when I first moved to New Hampshire, many years ago, I was in the public library when I discovered that Gladys had died some years before. I sat down and cried right there and when I explained to my husband that "Gladys died" he knew exactly what I was talking about. She had a way of writing that made us all feel as though we knew her and were her friends.<br /><br />By the way, is there some kind of Gladys Taber celebration going on? It seems like maybe three quarters of those reading my blog these days are arriving directly on my Gladys posts. Just wondering...<br /><br />I popped over to your blog this Sunday afternoon because I was sure that I had just recently seen a recipe for apple crisp here. And now you are tempting me with Gladys' recipe, too! I think the crisp will win out today, but I'll be coming back to try this one, too, and the rest of the recipes in your fruit desserts list.clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-56595687813263729302009-09-27T15:57:08.560-04:002009-09-27T15:57:08.560-04:00Sounds interesting.
