I need y’all on my dash!


A very apple filled day! My first batch of apple preserves, which I love but always have a hard time finding. Great with Brie on toast. This left me with a lot of apple peals so I decided to use some of them to infuse rum (see the big jar of brown stuff) along with cinnamon and cloves. And that left me with a lot of extra rum so I made two more jars, this time with mixed citrus. I dried the remaining peals in the oven and made apple chips. I still have a bunch of apples left over (I went apple picking a few weeks ago and may have gone overboard) and a friend just offered to bring me some from her neighbor's tree. Plus I haven't even started on my pumpkins. And my minion/BFF Dee brought over some cukes to pickle. It's going to be a busy week!
