Delicious Apple Pie Cider
(created by the lovely moms from At The Picket Fence)
A healthy alternative to the heaviness of apple pie…

Then combine apple juice, cloves, orange slices, cinnamon sticks and a little more apple pie spice in a saucepan. Heat the apple juice concoction and then strain it thru a strainer into mugs

Shellie’s Highly Favored Chocolate Lemon Bark Candy (great for gifts)
[from Hungry is a Mighty Fine Sauce by Shellie Rushing Tomlinson]
14 oz. old-fashioned lemon drops (crushed), 1 pound white chocolate bark, 4 teaspoons lemon extract
“There are only three ingredients here, which means this recipe is supereasy, but I perfected the chocolate-to-lemon-extract ratio
with trial and error. Take note: if you try to use anything less than 4 teaspoons of lemon extract,
you’re going to have white chocolate with lemon candy – not Chocolate Lemon Bark.
First, take a hammer to a bag filled with lemon drops and crush them into small pieces.
(This is a good time to get out any buried aggression.) Set aside.
Melt white chocolate bark in double boiler and stir in lemon extract. Spread over waxed paper-lined baking sheet
and sprinkle with crushed lemon candy. Refrigerate until set. Break candy up into bite-size pieces and enjoy.”
