Musings

One bushel of pie apples makes a lot of stuff.
- So far, I’ve gotten one load into our food dehydrator, and Irish Woman has made two double batches of apple-cinnamon-bourbon preserves.
- For those of you counting at home, it takes 21 average-sized apples to fill our food dryer.
- We still have a lot left. Probably dry a lot of them, and possibly can some pie filling.
- We have had our semi-yearly discussion about why we are not able to distill the fruit into liquor.
4 hours of sleep in 48 hours is not as easy when you’re 43 as it was when you’re 23.
I think that if I had consumed just a little more coffee this morning, I would have started hallucinating.
Dropping an aluminum canning kettle onto a box full of new jam, making a heck of a noise and breaking the seal on a couple of jars, will cause you to swear quite artistically.
It’s kind of nice to not have to run the air conditioner and sleep with the windows open in July.
- On the other hand, my tomatoes need hot, humid weather, so I’m hoping this is a short cold spell.
