We bought apple juice and apple cake:
And three different kinds of apple marmelade, very delish:
Here is my little professor friend and "her" tree - an Aroma apple tree:
And here is some of her posters:
We tasted a lot of windfall apples. Here I'm teasing the boys, having told them to taste a very sweet and delish apple - which of course was extremely bitter and sour. We girls laughed out loud:
And I bought a "pillar tree", also called a "ballerina tree". It is a funny broom stick tree without a crown that does not grow very high. I chose a Sun Cat which should taste much like Aroma. Here is my private pack mule aka DH:
It's a lovely day to spend a Sunday in autumn.
Beautiful apples! By the way, it is "pack MULE" in the States, not a pack 'ass.' That is something entirely different! DH and I are smiling! -- Max looks good and we wish you both a wonderful autumn weekend. xox, Flaurella
SvarSletThank you for the correction, dear. I must have been too busy. Have a lovely weekend. My pc died yesterday (one day before quarterly backup, of course), and I would have written a news mail to you - not that anything had happened. Have a lovely weekend, my friend. :)
SvarSletThat sounds like a very lovely outing. The area of British Columbia where I live is a huge fruit growing center for Canada, and one of the largest (and best known) crops is apples. There's an Agri-Food Research Centre located about 15 minutes from my town (in a charming little community called Summerland), but I don't think I've ever been (you've got me wondering now as to whether or not it's open to public visiting - I'll be looking into that for sure).
