Apples


...about 70 lbs. of them.  A blessing of crab apples from a good neighbor.
I have some simmering on the stove.  They are soon to become juice, jelly and sauce.  The apple  juice has seen us through many times when we couldn't make it to town to get groceries. 
It's a good year for apples.  I hope the Harrelson's that I have in the front yard will be ripe soon they will be used for more sauce and some eating apples.
So back to the kitchen I go.  Check in for more installments of "As the Farmer Cans".
