November Russet
Ladder Work
It has been chilly and cold – we even had snow a couple of days ago!

Reach
That means that Constance can help to pick the Russet Apples, since now they have had a frost.

Heaps
We picked several baskets of apples…

Birds
…which annoyed some of the birds…

Potential
…but now we can make some pie, or crisp, or sauce, or tarts…Yay!

Quimper Hittys 
I learn so many interesting things from you and you hittys…like russet apples need a frost before they are table ready. Who Knew!
That is what the “old wives” say around here anyway…they are supposed to be sweeter after a frost.
Charming….
We enjoyed the day – chilly but a nice sort of glow in the sunny spots…the baskets of apples were a bonus!
ahh, tasty!! We just got to attend Apple Days at the Mennonite Market….huge wooden bins full of at least a dozen different apple varieties. Looking forward to hearing what you make with your bounty.
So far, a delicious apple crisp…more to come no doubt!
