Last week, the twins and I celebrated the first day of fall with a trip to a local apple orchard. We had plans to visit the orchard with the MOMS Club the day before, but I was forced to cancel that trip due to the heavy rain that fell that day. The following day was cooler, cloudy, and quite foggy, but it was an absolutely PERFECT day for apple picking! We didn't have to share the orchard with many other people; most people probably stayed away because of the gloomy weather. We didn't mind it, though! We picked and ate our way through the orchard, even stopping to pick some pears for the first time, and treated ourselves to apple cider donuts and apple cinnamon scones when we were through!
After sharing apples with classmates and neighbors, eating several for snacks and with meals, and making one delicious batch of crockpot applesauce, we have very few apples left. It looks like we'll need to make another trip to the orchard!
