WHAT'S NEW...
HAPPENINGS IN THE "HOLLOW"
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
GREETINGS FROM BRIAR HOLLOW....Warm days and cool crisp nights, crows caw and pumpkins with lights; Corn stalks rustle thru out the night, as ghosts and goblins create a fright...HAPPY HALLOWEEN! This weekend I went pumpkin pickin at a patch close to our home that is owned by the Amish with my grandchildren. We make it a yearly trek and always come home with more than planned. The pumpkins were the final bits to be added to complete my fall decor. There is so much to do in the fall with all the fairs and festivals and I hope everyone is able to get out and enjoy the beauty of the fall season. This month I've added a few new goodies but with the holidays approaching fast lots more will be added so be sure to check back often. Also if you get a chance be sure to try the wonderful caramel apple cake recipe...it's good! As many of you know I have been "MIA" for a while. There were a lot of new changes in the "behind the scenes" with my company and I had to make decisions whether or not to continue the business. I have been on the Internet for 10 yrs and as you know technology waits for no one. So having said that I have decided to come back and put a 100% back into Briar Hollow and I will be doing the updating that is necessary so we can continue to move forward. Thank you for my many loyal customers that have hung in there with me. I hope you enjoy your visit…. until next month as the saying goes…there’s so much to see, so little time, so let’s get going to the “Hollow”..

½ cup brown sugar 1/3 cup light cream ¼ cup butter or margarine dash salt
1 cup confectioners sugar chopped walnuts
In a mixing bowl, combine oil and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine dry ingredients; add to batter and stir well. Fold in apples, walnuts and vanilla.

In the top of a double boiler over simmering water, heat brown sugar, cream, butter and salt until sugar is dissolved. Cool to room temperature. Beat in confectioners sugar until smooth; drizzle over cake. Sprinkle with nuts if desired. YIELD: 12-16 servings.
