HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN
Soft Apple Butter Cookies
When I was in high school, we had a wonderful Divinity student, Frank, who lived with our family.I loved the situation! I got the big brother I had always wanted and Frank would bring back Homemade Apple Butter from his family’s farm!

The first day with a new jar of Apple Butter, from the farm, Daddy and I would sit at the kitchen table with a loaf of bread, the jar of Apple Butter and a knife each. We would spread and eat, and spread and eat until we were too full to move!

It was wonderful and my memories of it are even sweeter!
