Perfect recipe for fall: Apple Cake. It is one day after Halloween and we ate a lot of candies. The weather was nasty, it was raining all day but it did not stop children to go “Trick or Treat”. I just love watching children in their costumes:) I just have to see exactly what costumes they are wearing. Now we are approaching into Thanksgiving Season. For me Thanksgiving is associated with family gathering, spending time together and eating delicious food. This recipe is perfect for Autumn! Apples are delicious and there are many ways to eat them. Apple Cake recipe that I made is very well known in my family.
