What is in your fruit basket?

Right now apples are in abundance, and it is my favorite time of year to make Knobby Apple Cake.  This recipe is found in my book, Entertaining for Eternity with Heavenly Hospitality which can be found on my website, www.entertainingforeternity.com!  If you have already purchased the book, please note the correction for this recipe and be sure to add a teaspoon of baking soda.  It is a really easy and very yummy recipe, especially when it is served warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.  I am getting hungry right now just writing about it!
