Homestead Happenings

Apples!

We picked up more apples yesterday from Pennsylvania. The first order made yummy applesauce, and these I have no plan for.

I got a bushel each of

• Honey crisp
• Fuji
• Crimson crisp

Wow!I grabbed one of the Crimson Crisp apples on my way back last night. Then another one.

I believe I’ve found a new favorite!

You can see my thoughts on the first batch of apples on the little video I made about that, lol!

So the Crimson Crisp seem perfect for just eating.

Thats what I was looking for in the last batch, but they were softer apples, which made good sauce. I’ll be giving the Fuji and Honeycrisp a taste soon, but for now I’m enjoying the Crimson Crisp apples.

Until we get freezing temperatures, I plan to store these out on our covered porch. Hope they last!

If you want to find out two dips that I like to eat my apples with, see

• Simple Autumn Apple Dip
• Salted Caramel Dessert Hummus

Both are wonderful this time of year with those crunchy, sweet apples!

What would you do with three bushels of delicious apples?
