Thursday #335 Fall road trip!

[Lady'sOtherHuman]

How's about some apple pie to go with that cider. I'll take one of those mulled ciders please, we're going apple picking tomorrow with the kids.

LOL,

"we're on the road to nowhere!!"

Road trips here are better left to the imagination. It's way too much work to plan a destination. I love the "just point and drive" train of thought.

Or, as my dad used to tell us when we wanted to know where the Sunday Road Trip would end up....

"Get into the car and find out!"

Cider for the whole crew!!!

Cider me up barkeep!!!

Cornbread casserole is yummy too.

Just plop some chilli in a casserole dish. Mix up a small box of cornbread mix and pour over it. Bake until cornbread is done. YUMMY INDEED!!!

I have neverrrrr tasted chili better than Slicks (how do you spell that anyway??) Just bought some last of season fresh corn on the cob (Eastern Shore of course) and a large ham steak. mmmmm-good. My son and Jenny are at Dover DE camping our for NASCAR on Sunday so I'm doing my cooking "thang" for the two grandsons and me. "Pour me something strong and cold, make it a Hurricane before I go insane" Oh, dear, hurrican season may be coming up soon on the East coast so lets go the mountains before the winds blow the beautiful leaves are blown to Hades.... bye guys, nice to be back!!!!!

A hurricane for the lady and I still have the finger I found in my bowl.

DONE!

MOFF,

If you hide them in the bottom of the bowl, You'd never know they were there!

I still wouldn't want to stand behind me, just in case. Would you?

We talkin about fingers or jalapenos hidden on the bottom of the bowl ??

Maybe I'll just have an apple.

Cheese for sure!!! I have to, um, pass on the jalapenos though. They shoot right through me!

Has it been a good apple crop out there this year? Here in Michigan, due to the cool summer, we are overflowing with them. Up the road, at a local orchard, one of the trees was uprooted by the sheer weight of the apples on it.

[Karen]

Wow, that's impressive! I am looking forward to an abundance of good local apples, as we had such a rainy, rainy summer ... in June, anyway ...

I loved the smell of Bummy's (maternal grandfather's) orchard in the fall. Trying to avoid yellow jackets buzzing around rotting fruit on the ground, though, or getting yelled at for dawdling, not picking - that I don't miss!

I am soooooooooo glad I am not allergic to apples!

[Grace]

My husband is allergic to the yellow jackets. Couple of years ago he got stung on both hands, and was almost in shock by the time he got to the ER. He's been getting desensitized ever since then - he now goes 5 weeks between shots. And carries 2 Epi-Pens wherever he goes!

Yeah, they've had a really good season this year. Kinda cool lots of rain and no hail. At least no really big hail. Last season when we went a lot of the apples had hail damage to them. But this year the apples are big and juicy!
