This time of the year for me is about remembering and when I remember it always seems to include food. I grow up in a  family that was always in the kitchen and around the table. My Grandma C. cooked her entire life for a living and for love,

Cut and core 5-6 of the firmest apples you can find.  
These are red delicious.

In a pan add 2 big Tablespoons 
of butter or margarine, let it melt a bit add apples
 1/2 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon

Stir and let the apples get soft and cook down.

I like them just like this, but over ice cream, white cake, french toast
or pancakes are wonderful too !
