Apple crisp with more crunchy topping than apples?
How about an apple pie with vanilla ice cream?
Maybe a pot of boiled, spiced apples – a chunky apple sauce – to serve with pork loin?
Or diced apples and cinnamon in oatmeal on a rainy fall morning?
I know! What about an apple cobbler drowned in heavy cream?
Or I could leave the apples in the bowl for a homeschool drawing/painting class.
Will came home with a grocery bag full of apples from the neighbor’s tree – an autumn harvest as partial payment for his weekly lawn care job.
Now we have to (get to) decide what to do with them.
Maybe we’ll eat them, one-by-one, just as they are.
If only all of life’s issues were this difficult.
My dad used to make apple pie filling and can it. Man, that was the best! Make a crust and just have to pour in that delicious filling any time of the year. :)
Z,
I think I’d like your dad.
I remember the year I did a bunch of freezing and baking of bags and bags of apples. Once was enough. (o:
Pat,
I know what you mean. I got to a point where I thought, “I could process all these apples or I could read a good book.”
The older I get, the less time I have to read all those amazing books out there. Besides, the canned stuff at the store is pretty darn good. ;)
