electric mixer til light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla; beat til

in the apples and the pecans. Spread the batter in the prepared pan.
TOPPING: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter and flour and blend

over the top of the batter.

pull away from the sides of the pan. Cool on a wire rack before cutting
into bars.

A Message from our Provider:
“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
