It's Apple Season

Yes, already! The poor branches of our apple tree are heavy with fruit and the apples are starting to fall to the ground. This makes our tortoise very happy, but it keeps us busy picking up fruit to keep from encouraging fruit flies. The only downside to this variety is that the fruit is soft and doesn't keep well. Once an apple is off the tree, it is only good for a day (if that). I spent the day waiting for inputs from others to work (Work! On a Sunday!), so I didn't make the chunky applesauce that I had planned. This will have to be a several evening project during the week.
