Did I say I was done?????????

So I looked out my window and what did I see? My neighbor making applesauce. Well you may ask how that applies to me? Well I will tell you. So I went over to talk to her. Long story short. I ended up spending my morning over their helping her. Well heavens if she can make applesauce then I can right?

Side note here. My Grandma Whiting always had apple trees and always made applesauce for us. This especially came in useful when I had babies. Never had to by the store bought kind cause she always had some for me.

Well me being me(some of you say nay I laugh). Never really had a desire to learn how to make it. I figure I tried to learn everything else that she had to teach me. So I never learned how to make her famous applesauce. Okay back to the original story.

So after I helped my neighbor this morning I called my mom.

ME: Are their any more apples on grandmas trees?

MOM: No Ila and I picked them all. Ila is making applesauce today and we gave the bad ones to the sheep.

ME: Do you think uncle Morrie has any left?

MOM: I am sure call him.

So what do I do. I call my uncle Morrie. He says I can have whatever is in the orchard. (did we read the other posts about my grandpa and the orchard).

So I proceed to call my mom back. Somehow talk her into going to pick apples with me. We pick them and I go to her house to pick up a pan. Go down to her storage room and see the amazing apple pie filling that she makes. Somehow I get it into my head that I need to do apple pie filling to. So I manage to talk my mom into helping me tomorrow to not only do applesauce but also pie filling. Some how I wonder why I do this to myself.. Then I see the finished project and think wow I did that. So my mom called and said lets do the pie filling tonight its not hard. So that is what we do tonight.

I have to give a big shout out to Grandma Na and Papa Ray. (gene's grandparents.) I called to see if they have a juicer thingy thing that separates the bad from the good stuff. Well not only do they have that but they have think apple peeler slicer thing. It was freaking awesome Love it.

So instead of the original 7 quarts of Pie filling I was doing tonight I ended up doing 14 quarts. Then we are doing applesauce tomorrow.

Moral to my story. I am going to stop looking out my window it only gets me in trouble.

This is my mom and I bottling the Pie filling. She really must love me cause when I get these crazy ideas in my head somehow I always rope her into helping me. True motherly love their.
