Simple Apple Pie Recipe + Giveaway

Filed Under: Dessert, Recipes Tagged With: sponsored

I received products from Ginny’s for this post. No other compensation was given. All opinions are my own.

Simple Apple Pie Recipe

I am so excited for today’s post, I am sharing a delicious and very simple apple pie recipe. (I also have a special giveaway at the bottom of my post) My mom makes this apple pie for almost every family get together. She usually makes her own pie crust but for simplicity sake you can buy pie crusts at the store. They are good, but nothing like her homemade crust.

I had so much fun spending time in the kitchen with my mom again. It brought back memories of helping her in the kitchen when I was younger.

The beautiful bowls and measuring spoons are from Ginny’s. If you like them you can win a gift certificate there and buy your own set. The contest details are at the bottom of this post.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
