Do you love apples? Do you love sharp cheddar cheese? Do you love a hint of spice? Then you’re going to love this apple pie! It’s savory, it’s slightly sweet,
Last weekend when it was really – actually – hot in Vermont in late October, Jedd and I went apple picking in the islands of Lake Champlain. And we over
