I just tasted our first batch of applesauce. I enjoyed it with a sprinkle of organic cinnamon. Absolutely delicious.
Secretly, I went back inside for seconds. I'm on the hunt for more apples. Word has it, that this winter will either be worse than last winter, or longer. I want to be sure my pantry is bursting with goods.
Not sure what we'll get done today, but one thing that needs done today is dig up the septic cap.
I actually had to write out a new "Top Priority" list for Hubby. He's under fire now.
Once we get job #1 done, it will be back in the garden again.
I love homemade applesauce, and I'm not a fan of coca-cola, it actually hurts my stomach, but once in a while I love a nice cold one from a glass bottle, just like that :)
ReplyDeleteWe're still trying to round up some apples so I can make applesauce. I think we may have located some organically grown ones, I hope, I hope. I sure don't want us to be eating a bunch of toxic sprays and insecticides in our applesauce!
ReplyDeleteWhen you wrote about sprinkling cinnamon on your sauce, it reminded me that a combination of cinnamon and honey is supposed to be especially good for us. Something about the way the two react with each other. You could drizzle a small amount of honey on your sauce before sprinkling on the cinnamon. We've been doing the cinnamon/honey thing on our toast in the morning.
The applesauce looks delicious pal! And are you kidding me about the winter!?!?! My goodness I am not ready for another one like that! And that comic is spot on! Loved it! Happy week to you! Nicole xo
ReplyDeleteYour applesauce looks delicious! I'm lucky to live in a town in upstate NY surrounded by apple orchards (and wineries) so there's never a shortage here.
ReplyDeleteSandra, I stashed a few extra bottles of that pop in my fridge. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteMama Pea, the honey and cinnamon together sounds wonderful!
Nicole, I've heard so many people tell me the winter will be bad.
Susan, we only have 2 orchards nearby and both spray.
