Moral of the story: If you stop cooking for a month, check the potatoes. lol
The alternative to this is
If you go on ATKINS and quit eating them... check under the sink

That sounds mouthwatering! I want some.

Ohhhhh I wish I was... that sounds like so much fun, and I LOVE apples!

It's the most amazingly delicious, easy-to-make dessert in the world! Peel and slice six (or so) apples, and plop them into a buttered baking pan. Mix up about 1/2 stick of butter, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/4 cup of flour, 1/4 cup of rolled oats, and a pinch of cinnamon; sprinkle this on the apples. Bake uncovered for roughly 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees, and serve hot or cold with vanilla ice cream or plain heavy cream.
(Note: this recipe subsitutes actual units of measurement for my usual unit, "some". Adjust at will.)

Mom's recipe leaves out the oats, its very heavy on the sugar and butter, its disgustingly rich. Ive found an interesting scientific fact in my years of kitchen research. A bag of keeper type apples will stay fresh and uneatten for months in the refridgerator, but will vanish within 15 minutes after being painstakingly turned into apple pie. There must be an explanation for this phenomenom. Diana
If you do not you are likely to find these long white hairy things filling the bag looking like monstrous spiders out of space. They have made me jump when an odd one as got lost behind the other things. Maybe I should have left them and got another crop of potatoes. LOL Shirley

I will try this and substitute the sugar. Did you use the baking apples or dessert ones. I am okay with the cups, I brought a set back home with me in 1999 but how many oz. is 1/2 stick of butter. Shirley

Ummm... a 1/2 stick of butter would be 2 oz.
I use whatever kind of apples I can get my hands on, except for Red and Golden Delicious. They don't bake very well; they're all water.
-Kalera
But they're wonderful for eating! I love a soft, sweet apple.
1 stick of butter= 1/2 C, "American" measurements; 16 0z/C 1/2 stick= 1/4C= 4 oz. Kaytee "Simplexities" on
Um... half a cup is 4 oz, and a quarter-cup is 2oz
If you wanted weight... butter typically comes 4 sticks to a pound (16 oz), so one stick should weigh 4 ounces and half a stick should weigh 2 oz. (Hey, neat!)
So... whether you measure it using a scale or a measuring cup, ya want 2 ounces.
HTH A
Thanks everybody for clarifying that. We buy our butter in 1/2lb blocks so I need a quarter of one of those. Shirley

oops! You're right!! It's 16 T to a cup.... I shouldn't answer math problems when I'm being harrassed by puppies wanting to go for walks.... Kaytee "Simplexities" on
Yes! They're eating apples, not baking apples.
-Kalera
Thats odd... all the cookery type books I have say golden delish are baking apples because they hold their shape. I think they are horrible for baking or eatting. Not enough flavor and I prefer a crisp sweet apple.. like McIntosh or Winesap. I like to put at least two different varietys of apple in a pie. It increases the chance that one of them will give off some good flavor. Diana
