I had a great spinach salad at a resturant long ago, haven't been able to find it since, so I played around till I came up with this and I like it even better.

    I cut the apples in half and use a mellon baller to remove the core, leave the skin on for color. Then slice very thin.

    In an 8 to 10 inch skillet, cook diced bacon till crisp, drain on paper towels. Drain skillet reserving 2 tablespoons drippings. To skillet return dripping, Add Vinegar and Brown sugar. Bring to a boil and cook till sugar disolves. Cool slightly. Since I am a dressing hog I usually double this part.
