October may just be my favorite month for food celebrations! Not only is it National Apple Month, but there’s Caramel Apple Day on Oct. 31!

I’ve decided to celebrate my favorite fruit by making one apple dish a day throughout October. Keeping reading Everybody Eats to see how I’m doing. You can also check out the Everybody Eats Facebook page at www.facebook.com/everybodyeatscr.
