Well yesterday I went to the apple orchard and picked up a couple of baskets.
The early macs and the paula reds are the only ones ready so far so with a basket of each home we went.
I gave 1/2 the apples to my mother-in-law and brought the other half of the apples home and made a couple of pies.
1 for my parents and one for my sweetheart, seeing as he was the one asking for apple pie.
As you can tell by the picture, it was devoured in no time at all.
In a couple of weeks I will be going back to get some Courtland apples, they are great for making chunky applesauce to serve with pork over the winter.
Then following in 2 weeks the Spartans and Spys will be ready and of course Spys make the best pies.
I am considering making a few pies and freeze them this year so when company drops by I can just pop one out of the freezer and bake it ...no muss, no fuss!
Awe, looks like a fun outing ^_^
