Wow, that's a lot of apples to process! I'm planning to post my recipe soon!

My daughters-in-law and I processed 9 half bushels of apples into applesauce, we just finished up today. We canned half and prepared the other half for the freezer. Your apple butter sounds yummy, care to share your recipe? 😉
Joy Kincaid says
Thank you, Sarah!
We do LOVE apple butter. My husband is particularly fond of it, so I was thrilled that he liked mine so well. 🙂
Sarah says
These photos are amazing, Joy! I love how you captured the mood and the hominess. And those little apple pies look delicious! Your girls are turning into quite the little homemakers. 🙂
Isn't apple butter delicious? It is one of our favorite spreads on toast.
Joy Kincaid says
Thank you, Nancy!
I'll have to go check out your pies! 🙂
Nancy says

Your daughters are very accomplished already! A credit to your early teaching and inspiration, dear mama! I loved your photographs…such beauty conveyed through something so simple as an apple pie. I have two sons, so seeing anything pink and domestic is a beautiful sight to my eyes, LOL! I enjoyed this post, please compliment your daughters on beautiful culinary creations…I could taste that goodness all the way up here in Illinois!
Blessings,
Lori

Thank you for your sweet words–we did have such a nice afternoon together. 🙂

Thank you very much! My girls just love cooking–they could spend all day in the kitchen, and they've told me it is their favorite homemaking activity. Sitting around doing cross stitch or other hand sewing isn't really their thing, but cooking they really like! 🙂
Pamela says
I think I could smell your delightful kitchen with all the cinnamon and other spices. What beautiful mind pictures of you reading to your daughters while they created their masterpiece pies.
With joy,
Pamela
Shelley says
