Autumn in New York Cream Pie
Today it is Athanasia’s father’s birthday! So, Happy Birthday George! What better way is there to share the joy of a birthday than making a birthday treat? When Athanasia (my better half) and I were discussing the options for a sweet treat, I came up with this idea. I will admit, Athanasia was a little bit hesitant (because of her dislike for cinnamon) so she said to me: “sell me on it”. Well, I am proud to say after she tried it she is not only sold on it, but is a believer! The flavor reminds me of autumn in New York; warm colors, crisp air and bursting with flavor! Try it for yourself, it’s the perfect autumn treat! Continue reading Autumn in New York Cream Pie
