Apples

There is an orchard near our house that was selling 22 lbs of apples for $8.00. What a bargin! Heather inspired me to make applesauce and after canning several quarts, dehydrating apples, and making fruit leather I went back for a second 22 lbs and made more applesauce, dehydrated more apples and fruit leather. I should say all this would not have been accomplished with my now most favorite kitchen tool- the pampered chef apple corer, peeler, slicer- it does all three in one step- it is a coolest gadget ever AND I got it for a steal $10.

This picture is SMALL portion of the applesauce I have. I hoping it will last for a LONG time but since Mercia practically exists on applesauce it will probably be gone in a month.
