Hey, y’all. Happy Monday. 🙂
So I did it. I got in the kitchen this weekend and made a couple things.
I think y’all know me well enough by now to know that we’ll just go ahead and start with dessert first. 😉
This was really good and so easy to make. Perfect for fall apple / cinnamon time.

Apple Dumplings

I was pretty much done with the recipe by the time I realized the camera lens has a smudge of something on it. Sorry for the haze on some of these.

1/2 cup White Sugar
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
Couple dashes of Cinnamon Spice

1 can Crescent Rolls

Apple Pie Filling. You can use real apples but I wasn’t in the mood to mess with peeling and coring.

Rolled up.


1 stick melted Butter and a splash of Vanilla added to the cinnamon / sugar mixture.

Mixed well.

Pour over dumplings.

6 oz of Mountain Dew poured around and over dumplings.

Baked for 25 minutes at 350*. I used my convection oven which cooks a little faster. Regular oven will probably be closer to 30 – 35 minutes.


Blue Bell. All the Blue Bell. 😉 If you know me in real life you know that I only tolerate 2 kinds of ice cream…homemade and Blue Bell. Blue Bell you were gone way too long. 🙂

Not that I wouldn’t eat 3 big scoops…but those are little scoops of ice cream.
This got thumbs up all around in the texas girl household. So simple and definitely a keeper. 🙂
I’ll have the main dish up later in the week.
I have more doctor stuff tomorrow but not sure what else the week has in store.
****Gross Pic Warning****
So this was how my left arm looked a couple weeks ago when I first shared pics here…

…and this is how it looks today…

A lot better. But…
…this is how the right arm looks today…

…worse than it’s ever looked. 🙁
This is just so frustrating. Oh well…maybe I’ll get some for sure answers someday soon.
In the meantime…

See y’all soon. 🙂
