the jewels of fall...

i grew up with an apple orchard on our property....i don't have one now, but our dear neighbor let us come over and pick what we wanted....no sprays - pure organic apples

 ~ the jewels of fall ~

she's so sweet....and so are her apples...


they make delicious apple jelly, applesauce and yummy pies.........







what goes with all this jam?


homemade buttermilk biscuits........

hope you all had a nice weekend with family and friends

xo+blessings,
