Reality Shot Thursday and Apple Pie Squares


Here is is. An unadulterated photo of the front hall closet. Scarves dangling, shoes askew. In the bag to the right I keep my shopping bags, underneath is the earthquake emergency kit. That glowing thing in front of one of the baskets - I had to go look. It's a reflective strap for walking at night. A little tidying is in order. 

But first - time for a break. I'd be happy to serve you a cup of coffee or tea and a piece of this apple pastry I just made.


Just give me a minute to tidy the front closet. And if you can't come today, well, you can find the recipe over at my other blog, here

  1. Closet cleaning is not for the faint of heart. That apple pastry looked soooooo good.

  2. It actually doesn't look all that bad, Lorrie! I am putting off cleaning out our downstairs closet and the one in our bedroom. I'll do anything to avoid it!

    Thanks so much for joining in!

  3. I was thinking it didn't look too bad either...not sure you can actually look in our hall closet! It is on my list though ;-)

  4. Oh comme cette pâtisserie a l'air appétissante ! Surtout ce soir où l'on a mangé une soupe parce que le repas de midi était trop copieux... je sens mon estomac prêt à gargouiller.
    Jean nous ramène beaucoup de pommes en ce moment, autour du village il y a des vergers (certains ont l'air à l'abandon) et il ramasse les fruits tombés à terre. Nous avons donc de quoi tester ce dessert !

  5. I don't think there is a closet in existence that is actually used that looks neat and tidy (just my personal observation). The pastry looks yummy ... I'm on my way over!

  9. Our hall closet was made for tall people, and the only way I can get anything at all onto the shelf is to toss it - or in the case of scarves, fling it artfully - as high as I can!

  11. I'd take a picture of that closet too Lorrie - you're so organized! I'd love to pop by for a coffee and some apple pastry. And then can we go for a beach walk?
