 Most of my day was spent canning apple pie filling for Ken's grandma. She is 86 years old and has very bad arthritis in her hands. Typically, we would get her apples when we go apple picking but this year she didn't want any because she said she can't peel them when her hands are so bad. So, I thought I would surprise her with some already canned. I sure hope she likes them, I know I do! :o)

I am not sure I like the crop. I tried a few different things but this was just a hard picture to crop.

Those canned apples look really delicious - it's almost like I can smell them being made. Is that a Winter Banana Apple??

At first I was just thinking, what a great still life. I love those old timey jars for a different look. But the story is so awesome! What a great thing to do for Ken's grandma! She's going to love them, and love the gesture even more. Who wouldn't!

Thanks for sharing!

If you don't the like crops, you shouldn't be picking apples. :>) I like the crop. I find it a-peel-ing. (Sorry, that was just too juicy to ignore).
