It was the annual family trip to go apple picking in Bilpin on the weekend...

| OMG We're going to pick apples, OMG let's run up and down and fall over |
 |
| Why yes, I would love to pick all the apples for you and put them in your bag |
 |
| Beautiful Sundowners |
 |
| Yep, that'd be around 20kgs of apples just there |
 |
| First kilo got dried |
So now I have 30kgs of apples scattered around my house. In hindsight maybe 30kgs was a little excessive, I've got one hell of a lot of peeling to do.
We've split them up as follows...
- Blackberry and apple jam (lots, its our family fave)
- Pie filling for x12 pies
- Eating
- Drying
- Apple puree for muffins etc
- Bottling - ie, preserving whole apple slices
We went to
Shields Orchard - a wonderful pick your own orchard, they're nearly at the end of their season now though, check their website for details
:)
2 people love me:
That's the one I go to too, I love it - so rustic. I got 25kg back in Feb and they're almost all gone now, I will get more next year. I bet your house smells great.
Blackberry and Apple jam sounds so good. I love picking apples.
