Apples and Pies and Parks and Trains!
Charlie and I have been having a great time this fall. A week ago Friday I bought a large amount (a “peck?”) of Jonathan apples from an apple orchard here in Iowa. Since then we have eaten a lot of apples every day, plus I’ve made an apple pie (never made a pie before!), apple sauce and today I made apple crumble. There are just a few apples left that I think we will eat (as opposed to using in a recipe). Then I’ll probably get one more “peck” before fall is over. Anyway, we also went to the park last weekend in Dexter, Iowa, and to see some trains this weekend in Boone, Iowa. Here are a lot of pictures:
Oh my! charlie has grown so very much since i last saw photos of him! he’s quite the little boy now:) congrats on the pie! those crusts are a pain in tush to make, but when they turn out…oh! heaven!
Sounds like you had a ton of fun with the apples and with Charlie!
He’s so photogenic… belongs in a catalog of clothes for little boys, or something… a real shutter-bug kind of guy!
The pie appears delicious! Hope it tastes as good as it looks!!!
