Kate did say the bar was really high for this competition, much higher than the competition she entered (and won a zillion blue ribbons) at the county fair. It was a fun experience, though, and I'm glad I entered. Renée: Yes, I just lightened up on the cinnamon a bit, and added a touch of Chinese five spice. I'm so flattered you like my filling recipe!

I still use that recipe for all my strudels, etc. Congrats on your placement. :) Is this a tweaked up version of you spiced up cinnamon-y apple pie filling?

Seems like no food community can beat Seattle. :) The color in these photographs is fantastic--really lush and late-summery.
