Here is a recipe I found from the Minimalist Baker blog: Easy Cinnamon Baked Apples I made some substitutions based on what I had on hand. I used flour instead of cornstarch, I used 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/3 cup pure maple syrup, I left out the nutmeg (because I had none) I added some lemon zest with the tablespoons of lemon juice. I also used more fresh grated ginger than the recipe stated. I am quite glad I did because I used enuogh that you could taste ginger in each bit, but it wasn't overpowering. The Hubs had purchased Hudsonville Cinnamon Sugar Cookie Ice Cream so that is the ice cream you see with the baked apples.
I used Gala, Golden Delicious and Honey Crisp Apples.
I'm glad I came across this recipe, it was delicious and smelled divine while it was cooking!
Masquerade Murder: A Victoria Town Mystery Novella by Mollie Cox BryanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the second book in the series. It's a seasonal novella, you can sit down on a cold October night after the kiddos are done ringing your doorbell demanding candy and slip away to Victoria Town.
I like Viv our protagonist, she has a wry sense of humor and it's fun to tag along inside her head. In this installment, I thought that Viv's Aunt Libby was less judgemental than in the first book and more involved in the sleuthing. I liked the build-up to the killer's reveal.
