 In med saucepan, bring broth and 6 oz of water to a boil over high heat.
 Add barley and reduce heat to low setting, so barley bubbles gently.  Cook
 for 45 min or until barley is tender and liquid is absorbed.
 
 In large skillet, saute onions and celery in 2 T water fro about 2 min over
 med high heat, add mushrooms and continue to saute for 3 min to release
 juices.   Add 1/4 C water, diced apple, raisins and pepper; simmer, until
 apples are soft about 20 min.
 
 Stir barley into apple mixture and simmer for 3 min to blend flavors.
 
 Remove from heat.  Stir in honey and lemon juice, fluff with a fork, replace
 cover and let stand until serving.
 
 Just before serving, sprinkle pilaf with fresh parsley and if desired
 garnish with freshly cut red apple wedges.
 
 Quite good...will definitely make again.
