A week or two ago Alyx and I picked up a book from the library called Applesauce Season by Eden Ross Lipson. That book made applesauce-making look so easy and so fun and so yummy that I could not pass up the apples at the grocery store yesterday. It’s apple season so prices are great and the fruit is fresh and crispy and juicy.
We followed the instructions from the simple picture book and made the very best applesauce we’ve ever had. Delicious! The littles had to go to bed before we finished, so Djeryd, Sean and I took care of the last few steps. This morning we had pancakes and fresh applesauce. It all felt so good and homey and comforting in the way food can be when you know it is made with love. I may not eek out another batch this season, but I feel good about making even just this one small one with my children. A lot of apples, a little sugar and spice, a lot of love, and a memory. Yummy!
