Sparkling Winter sunshine,
Faces all aglow
Making resolutions,
And angels in the snow ~
Steaming cups of cocoa,
A year that’s fresh and new …
All of this is magic ~
Unfolding just for you.

Delicious Homegrown Apples ~ 2021 πŸŽ

It seems I got myself confused over the last few months. I’m still unsure what kind of apples we are growing in our front yard. I’m leaning toward β€œMcIntosh” instead of β€œCrapapple”. We still might be guessing for a little while. All we know is that these apples are delicious. Kevin, the girls, and I usually eat them right there, where we pick them. There is nothing better than a freshly picked apple.Β
