Yep. It’s a big one. Not many people know this about me.
I have Flying Anxiety! I don’t know why! I LOVE to travel, but I hate the plane ride to get there! Usually, I just suck it up. Luckily, I’ve always had seat mates that didn’t mind me talking their ear off. That’s how I cope. I talk, A LOT!! I hope you are ready, Huck.
My fear will never hold me back. I may get nervous while I’m on the plane, but I will never let that keep me from exploring the world! I’ll just be a nervous wreck until we get to MN on Thursday.
Anyways, enough about my fears.
We have lots of produce laying around that is going bad. I found some Apples in the refrigerator that were close to their expiration date. I decided to use them for Apple Crisp. When I was looking for the brown sugar, I found a mini Graham Cracker Crust. Mini Apple Crisp Pie maybe?
The crunchy Graham Cracker and Granola worked so well with the soft apples.
I fell asleep working on this post last night. I’m not use to getting up at 7AM.
I’ve decided not to do the New Recipe and New Beer of the week. I have so much going on, and both of those take some time. I do have a new take on Country Fried Steak cooking in the Crock Pot right now for lunch. I’ll be back later with the recipe and more yummy photos.

Have a great trip, Sloane! A beer or two before the flight, your nerves will settle right down.
Your apple crisp looks great, as do your pictures! Nice job styling. 
Thanks! I’m glad our flight isn’t early. My last flight was 6:30AM. A little to early to order a beer.
I also have a fear of flying, but it’s so nice getting there faster, and I also talk to anybody that will listen or find a good mag. or book to read. I hope you two have a safe and fun trip, wish ya’ll we’re coming here. Miss you all so much. I like your apple crisp, and I’m cooking banana nut bread, 2 loafs and some muffins. I’m sure ya know I had a lot of banana’s that needed something done to cook so much. Call me when ya can, I left ya a message earlier. I Love You All, Mom
