Jim and I celebrated our 20th anniversary this past Wednesday. Since I had a spinning guild meeting on Saturday (always fun) we didn't do anything special until yesterday.
We went apple picking. At least we thought we were going to pick them but when we got to the orchard (one we hadn't been to before) all the apples were pre-picked. There were several different varities, each in it's own giant bin. We chose 3 different kinds that you wouldn't normally find at the grocery store. We filled one big bag for each kind. It didn't really look like that many. But each bag holds a peck. And we got three of them. That's 3/4 of a bushel. It didn't look like a lot at the orchard but it takes up a bit of space in my kitchen. I'll be spending this comming week and week-end cooking and canning.
Everybody wants apple butter for Christmas - right?
