Next time you're grilling, use a bunch of rosemary sprigs tied together as your basting brush. It's a helpful tip that gives your food a hint of rosemary flavor and makes your backyard smell wonderful, too. Tie them up, dip in oil, and brush on your meats or veggies.

I made these the other day. They were interesting, but weren't exactly what I expected. The spice was a bit overwhelming for me and I prefer something less sweet. I gave it a 3 |

The spiced apples were delicious and the cinnamon was a nice addition. I would have liked them a bit softer. I'll cook them a little longer next time. I gave it a 4 |
