Apple Tree

When we moved into our home, there was a tree in the back yard that we thought was a crab apple tree because the apples were so small and tart. Well, last year we were blessed with nice sized, plump, tart apples! Jeff and the kids (and the dogs) ate them straight; I cooked with them!

I tried to store them, but they didn't keep long in the freezer at all. Hopefully I'll find a better solution to storing them this year. The apples are still small right now, but they are coming along!

The picture below is hi-resolution so you can click on it to see the apples better, if you like. I realize they are hard to see as the leaves and apples are the same colors.


Maybe I should sell the extras as "organic baking apples"! LOL!
