Hahaha!  I have to stop laughing so I can type this!  Everyone is familiar with US Senator Larry Craig right?  You know the guy- Airport bathroom incident?  Well, he submitted a recipe for the “Congressional Cookbook” called a Super Tuber. All I can say is check out the recipe. Hahaha- he sticks the weiner in the hole made in the potato?  Don’t forget to rub down with butter!  Sounds yummy right? Hahaha! That is so wrong!

My favorite meal of a day is breakfast.  Yeah, don’t be jealous, I just had a great breakfast!  I ate bacon, eggs (sans yolk), toast, and OJ.  YUMMY!  Nothing starts my day off better!  Don’t hate, if y’all were here I’d a made you some too!

Harvest Pumpkin Apple Bread

Sadie October 1st, 2007

Often on Sundays, I will try a new or alter an old recipe.  Sometimes it turns out so-so and sometimes it is GREAT.  I’ve decided to start sharing the good ones.  The following is one I have “spiced up” a bit.  It is Harvest Pumpkin Apple Bread:

What you need:

3c all purpose flour   2tsp baking soda   3c granulated sugar   4 large eggs   1/2c apple juice   2tsp ground cinnamon    1 1/2tsp salt   1/2tsp pumpkin pie spice  1 can pumpkin                 1c vegetable oil  1 large baking apple, cored peeled and diced

Preheat the oven to 350.  Grease and flour two 9×5 loaf pans.  Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.  Combine sugar, pumpkin, eggs, vegetable oil, and apple juice in a different bowl.  Beat until just blended.  Add pumpkin mixture to the flour mixtrue and stir until moistened.  Fold in the apple.  Spoon batter into prepared loaf pans.  Sprinkle with cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.  Bake for 65-70 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.  Cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan to wire rack to cool completely. 

Enjoy!Â
