Last weekend we attempted to pick up all the fallen apples from our large tree, get them to the trash, and pick the good ones that remained. I had grandiose plans to bottle applesauce, pie filling, and apple cake as in some previous years. I even borrowed a friend's strainer to make the applesauce a breeze.
I readied about 4 huge baskets of apples, perhaps 2 bushels if I have my measurements correct. Six hours later I had four quarts of applesauce. It was 1:30 am.
I took this weekend off from apple duty. Maybe tomorrow. Those buggers really cook down, don't they?
