A big thanks to Tracey of Tracey's Culinary Adventures for choosing this weeks recipe. The Caramel Apple Turnovers are awesome and you can find the recipe on her blog.
Do you see the bees on my plate! I thought they fit perfectly with SMS!
It's been so crazy busy lately. I have dove straight into the world of child abuse issues, Health and Welfare, drug rehabs and dead beat parents. I'm so thankful I have this opportunity to serve CASA and help children. It is so sad but the work needs to be done.
So on to the turnovers..thank GOD for baking. It's such a great stress reliever and takes your mind away to a much calmer state, it does for me anyways!
I got these great Apples from Costco!
I absolutely loved these turnovers. I thought the filling was extremely yummy. I did not deal with the puff pastry's. I have had not so charming experiences with it before, so I made my own crust..pie crust..easy and it worked well.

Great idea to use pie crust! Your turnovers look yummy! Love the bee plate!
Yeah! I made pie crust also - I couldn't get puff pastry from the store (they were out). I thought these were great and a definite make again.
And I agree - baking is a terrific stress reliever and it sounds like you need it in your line of work.
Pie crust! How delicious! It was probably fantastic! I love the idea of it with the cream on top, mmmmm
Those turnovers look really good ;)
Have a wonderful day and don't forget to check out chocolate-making kit giveaway on my site :)

I bet that pie crust was so yummy with the filling. It sounds fantastic. I love the bee plate too -- it's adorable.
Pie crust is a great idea, like little hand pies! We loved these too.
I would have totally preferred pie crust! How smart of you. I'm glad you've taking on the work with CASA - I know someone who does this around here, and she is quite dedicated. Great job.

Pie crust sound nice and easy; your turnovers look delicious!!!
I bet they were really tasty with pie crust! I love any kind of pie you can hold in your hand. Meat pies, apple pies, berry pies...I'm making myself very hungry!
Puff pastry can be pretty fussy, pie crust was a good idea. It's nice that baking is helping you with the stress from your position; I admire people who can take on issues like that.
Glad you were able to make them work with pie crust - yum! They look like they turned out beautifully. I'm so glad you enjoyed them - they were a big hit with me too. Thanks for baking with me this week :)
The turnovers look great - so nice and rustic.

Michelle, your turnovers look wonderful! I love that you used pie crust instead of puff pastry, like little apple hand pies, great idea :)
What a blessing that you are able to help those who so desperately need it with CASA. I would love to do something like that when my kids are a little older and in school.
