Since 8 am, I have been processing apples for winter storage. First job was to hang apple peels and cores that I boiled last night, to drip for jelly (which I just finished, it's 9 pm now!). Then more had to peeled for apple pie jam, trying out a new recipe. Then MORE had to be peeled to load up the dehydrator again. The peels were put in a pot to boil and sit overnight, in the morning I will make another batch of jelly. All this from 3 bags of apples (only half were used), so the rest can be made into apple sauce in pint jars. I am tired! BUT, what a good addition to my pantry.

The best part of Monday was the help my 4 yr old granddaughter gave me. She used the apple peeler with my help and ate a slice out of each apple we did. She also helped me to arrange apples on the drying trays.
