I thought Iโ€™d better share with you my apple haul before all the Christmas dรฉcor comes out and fall is left in the dust. Iโ€™m making our fruit bowl part of the kitchen dรฉcor right now. Thereโ€™s no room in the refrigerator for all these apples so making them look pretty on the counter is part of my plan.

Every year hubby and I pick more than we can eat and those that are starting to be past their prime get turned into apple chips. They make for a sweet healthy snack and Iโ€™d just as soon have them over potato chips any day.

Did you happen to notice how imperfect the apples are? We picked strictly from the organic trees this year and I didnโ€™t notice how much smaller and oddly shaped they can be. It really hit me when I was grocery shopping and noticed all the pretty, shiny, perfectly formed apples in the produce section.

Wanting one to eat on my way home I started looking over them only to notice all the apples were from Washington. Why the heck would we import them from Washington when Michigan produces itโ€™s own apples? That struck me as crazy and not very cost effective but what do I know?

I know in the blogging world itโ€™s time to get my Christmas tree up and deck the halls but Iโ€™m holding off for now. If and when the mood strikes me Iโ€™ll get after it. Whatever it will be is going to be on the simple natural side.

I have a few ideas floating around in my head, most include collecting things from outdoors so once we have a nice day Iโ€™ll start getting those things around. So far weโ€™ve already had snow twice in the past week. My hubby and boys are glad they canโ€™t wait to go north and snowmobile. I used to go but now I say leave me home and Iโ€™ll get work done around the cabin.
