I'm sure they can't sell it, but oh boy, families sure could eat it.

It does smell good though!

It's like molasses. Nobody makes molasses the way they used to, laws prevent it selling it. But it sure was good.
Another hickory smoke memory.

I think I could smell it just hearing you all talking about it. My tummy's growling

Heh.
An apple stack cake is in my very near future.

Maybe even gingerbread.
Real gingerbread. Not the reasonable facsimile they make today which resembles nothing more than cardboard with ginger in it.

AND you will provide all the recipes to go with it, huh? Along with the applesauce, walnut muffins too???

How are you with pinches of this, drops of that and a smidgeon of something else??
Heh!!

Pretty good actually! That's how I cook and bake

Oh good!!

Me too. That is my normal method when cooking

Another one, oh boy!!
We speak the same language, Magga!

on some of this and a bit of that. Sounds like the apple butter recipe I posted.

Edited the recipe above, because I happened to get something from my recipe file today, and I did see that I wrote down what I put in the apple butter. 3/4 pot full of apples. Now how am I going to say how many that is?

But, I did have on there that I added two tablespoons of lemon juice. So added that above.

Juli!!

I still measure, don't know what a smidgeon amounts to, never did learn much from my mom I guess. My Mother-in-law once told me about baking bread way back in the 30's and she added a handful of salt and even the chickens wouldn't eat it. All depends how big you hands are I guess.

Maybe so, Pegi.
I don't have very big hands.

Pegi - here you go....

From Amazon page: These measuring spoons come in handy for those recipes that call for a dash-of-this or a pinch-of-that. Now you can take the guess work out of what a dash, pinch, or smidgen actually means when using these measuring spoons.

My mother would turn over in her grave, but I'm thinking I might have to get me one of those
