Apples, Apples, Apples

So, my hubby stopped by his brother's house for a quick visit and came home with a bucket of apples from his tree. Since yesterday was my day off and the weather was cool, I decided it was the perfect day to do something with them. I got out my handy dandy Pampered Chef apple peeler and got to work. I made quick work of those big, beautiful apples.

This is pan number one of the scraps. I ended up with 3 of these pans of goodies for the wildlife that roams around our little patch of heaven on earth. Took a little trip around the pond to drop these in the back for whomever comes to visit and wants a little snack. I'm sure the deer have already found them.😀

Made the hubby a nice apple crisp with some of the apples. It is delicious. We sampled it last night with a side of vanilla ice cream. Yummy!!

Had enough extra to freeze for pies. Not sure how these will turn out as I have never frozen apples before but found a few pins on Pinterest that said to just prep them and add a little lemon juice so that is what I'm trying. 

My work schedule changed this morning, so off to figure out what to make for dinner for the hubs tonight since I am now closing the store.

Enjoy your day~Becky

 

 

Relaxing Day

Spent the day with the hubby today. It was a nice relaxing day for both of us. We hit up a couple of little flea markets and went to one of my favorite vintage shops. We had fun searching for new goodies and found the items below. I added to my bowl and masher collection and he added to his vintage smoker houses. The old blue insulators will go in the garden as little flowers. I will post photos of how I use them another day. Top photo is my vintage masher collection that lives in my kitchen.

 Came home and worked in the garden for a while before the mosquitos found me. Had a nice dinner of mashed potatoes, marinated and grilled pork roast, and creamy cucumber salad. Now it's time to find a movie to watch and enjoy the cool evening air.

Have a wonderful weekend.
