AMAZING Baked Apples at Carol Doak’s

So I show up at quilting icon, Carol Doak’s, Salem, New Hampshire home one morning for a surprise door-knock for Quilt Out Loud (I sailed across Milford Lake, in a pontoon boat, right to her back yard!). Well, what do you know, she had just baked a slew of baked apples in delicious pie crust [...]
