Flavors of Fall, Vol. 2

It's apple time!  Apple cider, cider donuts, dumplings, caramel, and...pie! 

gotta have pie.

first you need apples-so we headed out to the orchard





 We had to pick out our pumpkins while we were there



nice pumpkins, Tom

you want us to what?  look at you?  at the same time? psssh.silly Mommy.

I'm on a horse      

we picked those apples ourselves, y'all
 Now it's time to make pie!  look how yummy it looks already!  Yes, I use pre-made crust.  Now you know.
is there wine in all of my pictures?
 Brush the top crust with a little milk and sprinkle with sugar.  It will make people gasp and claim it's the best pie they've ever had.  That's a tip from the legendary dessert queen herself-so take it and run.  Don't expect me to be posting any cheesecake recipes anytime soon, though.
yum

my little helper...note the apple in her hair

And a few more pics of Apple Festival fun @ Wachusett Mountain






Time to get ready for Halloween...stay tuned for pumpkin guts and spooky fun!

  2. I love it. The apples, the pumpkins, the pie, but, most importantly, the sweaters. Everyone knows that apple picking is really all about cute sweaters!
