Warm goodies for a cold day

It was a day of absolutely miserable weather. Howling wind, pouring rain slanted sideways, and the temperature never rose above 36F degrees. We huddled near the woodstove all day - reading, doing schoolwork, playing on the computer. The rest of the house was chilly with that screaming wind, so the warmth of the stove felt wonderful.

It was a good day for baking. Nothing like apple pie and cinnamon crust to warm the cockles of one's heart!

The pie is from pie filling I can during the summer months.

Cinnamon crust is simply pie dough rolled flat, brushed with butter or margarine, sprinkled thickly with cinnamon sugar, and baked.  It's a family favorite and very simple.

After such a miserable day of weather, at least we had a few minutes of colorful sunset to remind us of God's wonders.
