Apples

 We were able to get almost a hundred pounds of apples from the Amish about a week ago; they are the best apples I've ever eaten and an awesome buy at less than 50 cents a pound.  See those 50 pound bags behind Spiderman that have been hogging my island?


Thankfully, JD's mom is here for the week and has helped peel lots of apples! We've canned nine quart jars of applesauce, frozen six pre-mixed pies and made a big tray of apple crisp.



JD is going to stop on Monday and see if he can get one more bag. The smell of cooking apples can't be beat.

  2. Apples are my favorite things to put up. You're right, the smell is awesome. The heat is so friendly too...at least here in the North.
