They keep pulling her away from her piano.
She isn’t yet lucid, but trying to fight her way out of the nightmare.
The strangers.
Why don’t they want her to play?
She tries to reach her mother, her father.
They keep drifting away.
Thanks to Rochelle!

Appalachian Recipe: Fall Apple Cake
Hi everyone! This is a very old Appalachian recipe, handed down from my great-grandmother to my grandmother and finally to my precious Aunt Red, the lady I wrote about in the blog post, The Most Elegant Lady. It is so old that the writing is extremely faded on the paper I have. I have to get it typed up before it completely fades away! Since it is fall apple season, I thought it was time to share this with all of you!
Fall Apple Cake
*This cake was originally supposed to be made with Winesap apples. Winesap apples are very hard to find now. Granny Smith apples are the best substitute.
2 cups sugar
2 cups vegetable oil – Wesson oil or other oil
Mix sugar into vegetable oil
3 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsps cloves
1/2 tsps cinnamon
1 tsps salt
1 tsps baking soda
3 cups finely chopped apples (Winesap or Granny Smith)
Optional: 1 cup finely chopped nuts or 1 cup raisins
Mix everything together
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour
Let cool on a baking rack before cutting it
ENJOY!!
