Apples Apples Apples!

This week I have apples on the brain.  On Saturday, the fam and I will go to our annual rite of Autumn - our  local Apple Festival.  It's a family tradition (we've been going for 23 years!) and my favorite weekend in the fall.  We'll watch chain saws artists (otherwise knows as guys carving pumpkins and bears and such out of logs using a chainsaw)...eat kettle corn, caramel apples, roasted chickens and apple dumplings...buy every cute craft I see...and maybe take a hayride.  Oh yeah, and we'll bring home bushels of apples and gallons of apple cider!  Since I'll have so many just-picked-perfectly-juicy apples lying around, I turned to Pinterest for some extra inspiration.  Here are some of my favorite applicious pins:

6  I am absolutely trying this apple ring recipe out!  {source}

7  Oh how I love tealights in the top of apples  {source}

9  Must do this for Munchin!  {source}



And Munchkin's favorite part of the Apple Festival?  The fact that we have to park in hayfields and ride on school buses to the festival site!
