Apple Harvest!

This past week, our apples decided they were ready for picking...


I love the heady scent of the apples in the cool evenings...absolutely intoxicating.


A few mornings ago, I quietly slipped out the back door before the kiddies woke up and had a little fun with our new camera and harvested all the apples I could reach.


I sincerely hope our neighbors didn't see me crawling around the dewy grass in my jammies
taking pictures of the apples on the ground...


...but if they did, they have been kind enough not to comment (to me)...


Mmmm.
I'm smelling the applesauce already.


Apple pies...
in my dreams of course...
(Mom, could you please come back and bake us an apple pie?
 I just can't get them right!)


I'm dreaming up apple & marscapone dessert ravioli with a buttery, vanilla-y cinnamon sauce though...


Or apple crisp.
I can make a good apple crisp.

    Apple Dumplings <3 Its just now autumn without my Grandmother's warm apple dumplings.

    And hey, the best pictures are sometimes taking crawling around outside in your jammies. I have done it more then once (;

    Hope you share your yummy goodies when you make em!

    Oh yummy. I LOVE apple crisp. And nothin' quite beats a pot of homemade applesauce. Apple anything and I'm on board. Completely jealous of the haul.
