Apples, apples, and more… apples
This is how I spent my weekend…
filling the sink
and in buckets on the ground...
The kids and I went up to Logan this weekend to harvest the apples at my aunt and uncle’s house. My aunt and I spent the WHOLE day canning apple pie filling. By mid day we had it wittled down a little bit…
still a lot of apples...
but we still had a lot to do so we kept going… and going…
the two handed peel
… we employed the aid of others in the house…
(the kids also helped peel lots of apples, but I was bad and didn’t get pictures. darn it)
At about six, we broke for a yummy pizza dinner at Frederico’s…
I LOVE their salads with pickled beets! and then…
back to the apples…
beautiful apples... and super yummy
It was a wonderful day filled with hard work, laughter, yummy smells, and tasty apples! I loved it. Super therapeutic… and now I have lots of apple pie filling to put in my pantry…
Thank you for a wonderful day Shirlene!
WOW, I wish we could’ve done our apples together! So fun!
So many reasons to love this post!! I miss the Midwest apples, but wow did I need you around for the ambitious canning project! Sorry I haven’t commented in a while…did your address change or something? It’s in my reader wrong.
Oh – and the snake is craziness. Cray-zeeee-ness!
