We got our first new tree in about 30 years. This one is prelit and we can change the color combinations. I always wanted white lights and Steve wanted multicolored. I’m amazed how much I like the multi color with some twinkling lights after 30 years of white lights. We also did a color coordinated tree for the last several years and this year we went back to our traditional family ornaments. It was a walk down memory lane seeing ornaments from our vacations and kid’s activities etc. This tree means more to me the color coordinated one need. I guess I’m getting older and wiser. 🙂 What color lights do you put on your tree? Do you do a color coordinated tree or a traditional tree? Can’t wait to hear what you have to say about this.

I will always love heat embossing. It just makes a card look like it couldn’t been made at home. You can see all the products I used at the bottom of this post.

This is a beautiful tree from our early morning walk this morning.

I have trouble not taking pictures of all the pretty trees! When I was in Ireland, it was taking pictures of sheep and flowers.

We finally made it to Steve’s 60th birthday on Wednesday. We celebrated each day with a little gift or note for 60 days and then our trip to Ireland. The final celebration was dinner with Ryan and Bree at Jethro’s and some Culver’s frozen custard. Oh yea, they beat us bad at partner Cribbage and then we came back and won a game. Birthday is done and dusted and Steve is actually embracing being 60. Miss ion accomplished! 🙂

Warm Apple Cake Recipe- I usually make it a little healthier now.  I use 1 cup almond flour.

Steve and I got married 37 years ago and the only bridal shower gift that I remember is a 9″ x 13″ aluminum baking pan with lid and this hand written recipe. (Thanks Susan Egel) I’ve literally made this recipe at least 100 times and Steve just requested it this week for his 60th birthday cake. Yep, it’s that good!

OK, so I’ve spilled on it a bit and it is well loved. When I go to a Bridal Shower I always get the bride some things off her Bridal Registry because I want her to get what she wants. I was pondering today: should I instead get the Bride a 9″ x 13″ covered aluminum cake pan and this recipe? You can get the pan here. From now on future brides, I’m giving you what you’ll cherish for years to come instead of something you want off your Bridal Registry that you’ll never remember 37 years later. 🙂 Yes, I still use the pan all the time, too!

I’ve been making this cake every Fall for my BSF groups for about the last 15 years. If you’ve had my Warm Apple Cake or would like to have it some day, please leave me a comment. I would also like to hear your favorite recipe of all time. I have modified the recipe a bit over the years to make it healthier. When I made it on Sunday I used 3/4 cup olive oil instead of vegetable oil. I used 1 cup almond flour and 1 cup Einkorn Whole Wheat flour instead of 2 cups of white flour. I also used 1 cup monk fruit sweetener and 1 cup sugar instead of 2 cups of sugar. This recipe is very forgiving, you do you, and make it any way you want. I like to serve it warm. Hope you’ll try it.

My dear BSF friend, Crystal Tommingo, looked at my original recipe and thought I needed a new copy. Thanks for making this beautiful copy, Crystal. You’re the sweetest!
