Apple-y sweet and fun to eat!

Today was our inaugural apple picking outing. Even though it was cold, and I was tired (I worked a 7am shift this morning), we had a grand old time. We all bundled up and headed to the local apple orchard and picked ourselves some Honeycrisps and a few other varieties. But mostly Honeycrisps because let’s be real, they are really the only true apple variety this time of year. And we got a bag full of them for ten bones. And we ate one while we picked.

Summer happily hung on Dad while we meandered though the orchards trying to avoid the icy drafts. I’m super excited to make apple crisp and apple pie and apple dumplings (a la Our Best Bites….they call for Mountain Dew…this could quite possibly be the world’s most perfect food!)

Two questions...what kind of camera do you use to get such crisp photos? absolutely stunning...

also, is that hat that summer is sporting a custom made piece from the Wet Donkey clothing line or straight up baby gap with the tag carefully removed??
