Pickin's

 We had the delight and opportunity to go apple pickin' this Autumn at a friend's orchard. It was SO FUN! They even made their own cider press, where D and I pressed a gallon and a half of pure unadulterated cider! I've never tasted cider so good. In fact, i mourned for a week when the cider was gone...which was like 3 days after we pressed it. I also saved some of the apples to make homemade Cinnamon Applesauce. Another wowser treat. Gluten-free recipes, such as in "Babycakes" Recipe Book, use Applesauce as a liquid and much healthier substance, as opposed to oils, butters, etc.
How do you like THEM apples?


We all see ourselves as bigger than we are.



Agave nectar, cinnamon, and baked apples is all you need for some yummy applesauce.



had a little fun with some cookie cutters on this one.


We had in when the in-laws were in town. Nothing but the best in show for Dave and Deb!

Ohhhhh it was divine.
One should always have a silver colander.
