applacres


I set up a Field Trip Friday group over the summer - to explore the wonders of Indiana. Last Friday we went apple picking at Applacres [sic]. It was a perfect day and we had a cute crowd of pint sized pickers! The apples were at perfect picking height. Ty had his picking strategy down, making sure to twist the apple off instead of yanking it off. Beckham thought it was better to pick them off the ground. They all had a great time eating their hand picked apples - and now I am left with a 5lb bag of apples and no idea how we are going to consume them all. Any fun recipes you want to share with me?



Two little apples up in the tree,
One for you and one for me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could,
And down came the apples, mmm they were good!



Some of our field trippers.

what a cute little group. I have an applesauce recipe, I'll find it for you. or you can bake them and fill them with nuts, cinnoman,brown sugar and raisins or no raisins.

Apple Crisp, apple butter (although I would have to find a recipe for that), dried apple slices. Yum - apples all winter long. What a fun day.

We went apple pickin' a few weeks ago and I loved having the fresh apples. Kali ate apples all over the place. I made apple crisp 2 times in one week ( I think I ate the second one by myself minus a slice or so ) So is there a way I could get in on the field trip? I sure wish I could! My cousin started working for a airline and he gets 8 buddy passes a month and so as soon as I can get my grubby hands on some we're there--maybe even sooner than later!

I love field trip fridays! Wish we lived closer. The apple orchard looks like fun-- it just doesn't feel like Fall in Vegas.

I am so jealous. I wish we had an apple orchard here. We don't get much of a fall here in south Alabama!
