A is for Autumn---

The origin of the word comes
from the Latin "autumnus."
Harvest was the English name
for the season until autumn
displaced it in the 16th century.
Here in the US we flip between
"Fall" and "Autumn." I most
usually use Fall when I am talking
about the season. How about YOU?

A is for Apples---

There are so many varieties of
apples today and and not all parts
of the country have the same kind.
My faves are Golden Delicious and
Pink Lady. What is yours?

One can make many things with
apples and one of them is...

Slow Cooker Applesauce

In a 5-6 qt slow cooker, toss
together 6 lb Gala apples (about
12 peeled, cored, and cut into
1/2 in pieces), a 2 inch piece
of fresh ginger (peeled and grated)
and 1 cinnamon stick.
Cook until the apples break down
when stirred, 7-8 hours on low
5-6 hours on high. Stir in 1 tsp.
pure vanilla extract.

Makes 8 cups
