Apples!

Fall is apple season, and we've had apples coming out of our ears around here this fall. A family in our church has quite a few apple trees, so we've been grateful beneficiaries of their apples. One day we went out to their place with a few others to make some apple cider.

Sarah is cutting apples that will be sent through the cider press. We worked a little, had some cider, worked a little more and drank some more. It was a delicious afternoon!

The trees were loaded down.


It's amazing what you can make with apples. It's seems like there is apple in everything I (Uche) eat now. The good thing is that I'm enjoying it. We drink lots of apple juice, eat all kinds of apple cakes and even have apple butter. Just this morning Sarah made pancakes with applesauce and that's when I realized that apple is more useful than I thought. Last night She made chopped apple with green onions on pork chops, boy was it good! I like everything about apples.
