Spring Flavors in Beverage

At our Bible study salad luncheon today, I decjded to serve fruit tea as one of the beverages.  I thought it would be refreshing.  The days have been unusually warm and tea is such a great thirst quencher.  The recipe I used is one a pastor's wife passed along to me and I am happy to share it. 

As tea refreshes us, may we refresh others by speaking the truth of God's word to them.  Perhaps they will be so refreshed by it they will ask us for the recipe, and we will have the privelege of sharing Christ with them.  What a joy that would be!  Be refreshed then refresh.

Fruit Tea
2 family-size tea bags
1 c. sugar
1 can frozen orange-pineapple juice

Brew tea for 3 minutes.  Stir in sugar until dissolved.  Add juice and water to make a gallon.  Garnish with lemon or orange slices.

Best-Ever Apple Pie--Really!

You just can't beat a good ol' American apple pie for a great dessert. This recipe was featured in the September 2008 issue of Southern Living. It has five pounds of apples in it!! The picture above is the picture of the pie I made. It was so good! As you read the recipe, you will notice that the crust is a little different--it has cornmeal in it. It also uses apple juice as the wetting agent. The trick is rolling the top crust out large enough to cover that mound of apples. If you love apple pie, try this one. I don't think you'll be disappointed!
