Apples

If you've never picked apples from a tree, you're missing out on one of the joys of fall. There's nothing like an outing in the crisp fall air, gathering apples and enjoying time together as a family. Schedule an apple-picking expedition this weekend! And then, with your harvest, make some apple recipes. Apple Walnut Bundt Cake (pictured) is one of my favorites. Then there's Apple Crockpot Pork Roast, Fresh Apple Quick Bread, Apple Mint Chutney ... enjoy.
