San Antonio at last

Ashley & I arrived in San Antonio (again) today. She had to at least sign in on post today. We drove around for 2 hours from the hospital to Fort Sam Houston back to the hospital & back to post trying to find the right place for her to sign in! The Army just doesn't make it easy!! Finally, we found out we had to go the Equestrian Center to the temporary building that was her command post!! She's signed up to take an introductory session Friday a.m. and then she will be following the Army scavenger hunt to get all checked in - which will probably take a couple of weeks! Then, she will get down to business being a doctor. We are staying at a Marriott and I can't wait to lay my head down on their fluffy pillows tonight. Tomorrow we plan to just chill out by the pool. After all, it will be 100 degrees tomorrow .... at least!!

Here's a yummy recipe for you:

Scrumptious Apple Dumpling Cake

INGREDIENTS
3 lbs. apples- peeled, cored and sliced
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
Place sliced apples in layers at the bottom of the baking dish.
Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium sized bowl. Stir in eggs and butter; then pack on top of the apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon (feel free to add more if desired).
Bake your cake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is puffed and golden brown. Wait until cooled and cut into squares.
