Glorious autumn weather and apple picking are perfect together.
Sunday we headed down to Gull Meadow Farms, for Miss Natalie's first birthday!
We had a awesome time apple picking and watching our niece, nephew, and their friends run around Pumpkin Lane. I'd have never been apple picking before, but soon learned that I shouldn't eat every good apple I found! Truly think we should make this a yearly tradition.

So now that we have a 1/2 bushel of apples...what to do with them?
Zach think's he'll be able to eat them all right away... I told him I'll start looking for some recipes.
I want to try something other than the ordinary apple pie or crisp. Suggestions?Hope your week is going well! I've been busy with a few big projects here. I am really excited to share with you all some of my plans and thoughts that I've been throwing around my head for some time.
Stay tune!
I SO need to go apple picking. I have no excuse--there's a farm really close to my house. But I never have been. Anyway, I will totally be awaiting your ideas, milady. Please share soon!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had such a fun time! I love the picture of you being hoisted up into the apple tree, hehe. And I looove the belt you're wearing too. Yay autumn!

beautiful pics Kate! I've been apple picking a few times and I love it! Such a perfect thing to do during the fall season. Homemade applesauce!!! :)
ReplyDeleteApple Nachos - Core unpeeled apple and slice very thin - spread out on large platter and drizzle with caramel & sprinkle with chopped nuts, chocolate, marshmallows or whatever your little heart full of daisies wants.
ReplyDeleteMake an apple cake!
ReplyDeleteOh you guys look like you are having a lot of fun! I love that sweater! You should make apple salsa, it is great with chicken :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like so much fun! You can try grating an apple into pancake batter with lots of cinnamon - serve with yoghurt & honey for a rustic pancake breakfast!
ReplyDeletelooks like a lovely afternoon.
