    Apple Love and My Favorite Apple Pie Recipe

    ByMary Crozier September 12, 2023September 12, 2023

    With apple season just around the corner, let’s talk about apples and my favorite apple pie recipe. After being raised on a wide variety of Connecticut apples, it’s hard not to be an apple snob.  But we do have a few varietals that grow well here in Arizona, depending on the USDA Hardiness Zone.  At…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier June 5, 2021June 5, 2021

    There is something very special about coming home. After another trip back east to manage my Aunt Gail’s affairs, coming home is well…so satisfying. My own bed, getting back into a routine and the dogs are always so happy to see me. And now I am at my desk writing my Saturday Meanderings so all…
