A is for Apple...

And boy, do we have apples here! We went picking this morning and came home with 105 pounds of apples. I'm excited, because it only cost us $53 for all of them - it'd be two to three times that much if I'd gotten them from the store. So now, I'm in the middle of cranking out some saucy goodness. Andy came in from the garage while I was in the middle of straining/pureeing the sauce and declared it "magical." I've never seen anyone who loves applesauce as much as he does. (Good thing too, since we'll have a lot of it...)
I'm hoping that in the next week or so, we can pick up a second freezer so I can freeze the next batch of sauce. There's nothing better than "fresh," homemade applesauce year round.
We're having dinner tonight with some friends, and applesauce is our contribution to the meal. Yum!
