Yesterday I made my annual fall pilgrimage up to Apple Hill, an area with several apple orchards. October and November are the months to go, and I was able to pick up 10 pounds of Arkansas Black apples for me, as well as some Mutsu apples for my dad's wife. Sure, I like Red Delicious and Honeycrisp as much as the next guy, but I can get those at the grocery store. That I like the Arkansas Blacks is surprising, given that they're considered quite tart, but like them I do.
I also picked up an apple pie and some apple turnovers. They maintain well in the freezer, and the turnovers are a treat throughout the year.
Tri-tip sammich lunch up there, life is good!
