Halfway Through September Weekend Recap
Howdy-eth Do-eth? Anyone else in the 90's today and the rest of this week? 🤬 It's like summer is getting out its last wrath or something. Not to say when the calendar flips to 'official' Fall that it will suddenly drop in temps but I did see low 80's on the horizon even though my body is quite ready for 60's, sweatshirts and fuzzy socks. But I know at least one or two Indian summers or whatever people younger than me in the PC realm call Satan bursts await in October. I am happy to say I was able to get into the basement Friday and that pic from Friday's post is actually a reality on top! It still looks like steaming garbage on the floor but I do what I can. Saturday we decided to drive and find a Town de la Podunk and see what we could get into. When we arrived at said place, we had a swing and a miss for an old fashioned donut shop. For the love of God, they are not dinner rolls dunked in DQ chocolate dip cone sauce....
I have gone apple picking and I like doing that when it's not too crowded out there. I don't bake but if I did I'd make apple pie because that is the best!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely orchard time! Can't wait to see your mouth watering pics!
ReplyDeleteHappy Fall, I know you love it
I thoroughly enjoy this time of year and am hoping to go to the orchard in the next week or two when it cools down (back in the mid 80's next week). I used to make this amazing apple bundt cake of my mom's that was so delicious! The hubs isn't a big dessert guy, and the cake makes a lot, so this year I decided I'm going to make a fun apple tart with a mix of Granny Smith and Pink Lady apples, and Pinata apples (for a tropical twist).
ReplyDeleteI sometimes see an ad for a "pick your own" place, but I haven't ever been able to figure out exactly were it is. Maybe this is the year. Mom has an apple tree in her yard so if I'm up there at the right time I will bring a bunch home. I love apple pie, but I love it even more if someone else makes it. My favorite thing to do with apples is to make applesauce. It's easy, a few spices and my crockpot, it make the house smell fantastic, it freezes well, and it tastes amazing.
