How to make apple butter
Warning: image heavy post!
Wake up really early in the morning, wondering if this will be worth it...
...then step outside and realize it already is.
Make a stop along the way because a full belly is essential to this process.
Wonder how this will ever be anything but apples...
...and be amazed as you watch the process unfold.
Freeze a little!
Then watch a small hand-cranked machine separate apple peels...
...and marvel at the deliciousness of homemade applesauce.
Pour the sauce back into the pot to re-heat...
...and fall a little bit in love with a man who could be your grandpa because he's so sweet.
Add some cinnamon...
keep stirring...
And then can a few jars of sugar-free apple butter.
Relax a little...
...add some sugar...
...can some more...
...then cleanup!
Experience a sense of accomplishment at the finished product.
Sleep soundly that night knowing life is good, especially when surrounded by welcoming people and views like this.

Kisses my dear
Ps: I am hosting a sweet GIVEAWAY later on today! Please, join in!
oh wow - those pictures are awesome. The valley where Mandy lives is just so beautiful! And I just can't get over how cute her pap is! I want to meet him!!
SO glad you girls had such a wonderful weekend!!
Ahhhh, love it! I basically adore all these pictures. Thank you so much for coming, we all had so much fun having you here. You forgot the the first step is to actually help Pap cut the apples, manage to slice open your thumb and left hand mulitple times and use no less than 7 or 8 bandaids. =)
Such a fun, fun, fun day!
Yum!!! This looks like so much fun!
Awesome! I love the photos. Looks like such a fun, beautiful time. Did you get your milkshake from Steak n' Shake!?
Oh, I miss real Fall so badly! I love this photo documentary of your apple buttering!
I love the way you captured the weekend! And it looks so delicious, homey and fun :)
Love the photos! And the view from Mandy's place reminds me a lot of the view of the valley we have in Kamloops - love small towns!! :-)
I seriously cannot get over how GOOD that apple butter looks. Like, SO FREAKING GOOD!
