I am super excited about apples. I will start canning applesauce in a few weeks when I head to our NC house and it is quite an operation. My son in law mans the peeler/slicer crank while I head up operations at the stove. GiGi's applesauce is one of my grandson's favorite foods and, now that he is 2 1/2, we are thinking he can start to take short turns with the peeler/slicer crank. We go through something like 4 or 5 bushels of apples but every scrap is gone by the following October. I suspect a few of my friends may pretend to like me more than they actually do so that they can score a jar!
By the way, it cracks me up the way y'all casually mention broccolini. This must be a common thing in CA but I have never actually seen broccolini in a New Orleans or a rural NC grocery store. And I have looked.
Im so jealous of your apple harvest!! Broccolini is super common here but broccoli works just as well. Im sure we don't get all the great apples you do though.
