We went to the mountains for sewing and apples and relaxation. Great trip, except for the rain. And the boredom that came with it.
We got roughly 11 bushels of various kinds of apples. That was a tight fit in the van for the ride home. We have already canned 20 quarts of applesauce and dried 2 dehydrator-full batches. So very good! The kids have eaten many, many apples. Tomorrow I want to can more applesauce and some pie filling. I also want to grate and slice some for later use in muffins, oatmeal, bread, and such.
