It is apple picking time!

What a wonderful time of year, to be able to walk out your door and pick a fresh apple or pear! My pears are almost done for the year and we have enjoyed them greatly, but our apples are still going strong.
Nothing smells so good as homemade apple butter cooking on the stove, unless it is accompanied by some homemade bread.
And then there is apple jelly, pie, and apple sauce. Too much to make in too little of time.
But I think that my grandchildren love it best when I just peel and slice some. I can't keep ahead of the little hands reaching in for more. Happy Autumn!
