It never fails that I will buy a lot of something, and my family decides that’s the exact item they don’t want to eat for a while. Recently it was apples. I got pounds and pounds of apples because they were eating pounds and pounds of them….then all those apples sat and sat.
I had several apples that were going a bit soft or had flaws in them. Rather than just cutting out the bad parts and serving them with cheese and crackers for a snack I decided to make apple sauce. It’s so easy and quick and let’s just say all those apples are gone now…after having to make this every day for several days!
