It's raining Apples and Pears!

The weather has been a bit erratic.
It rains...it shines...it hails...mostly it rains.
This was the scene at the Hood River, Oregon Harvest Fest. Not too festive, but we did come home with 65 pounds of apples and pears!

This is my personal stash.

I'm starting with a nice ripe Bartlett Pear. 

Mom wants to make these mini Caramel Apples, that she saw in a magazine. You scoop an apple with a melon baller, put a twig in it, dip it in caramel and roll it in nuts and chocolate. 
Bite Sized Heaven!!

Stanzie says, "Thanks for saving the red pear for me!"


Happy Harvest!
Wyatt and Stanzie

  7. We can't believe that you get your own personal stash. I'm all for the apples. How about chocolate covered apples for the humans?

  11. Caramel apples sounds yummy! The weather is pretty awful here too - raining nearly every day and there is so much mud from the fields everywhere it's hard to find a good place to walk. Enjoy that fruit - woofs and licks from Magic xx

  15. Those pears look very tasty Wyatt, but what will you do with 65 lbs. of them? I suppose you can make about 87,000 of those little caramel apple things.

  20. We don't think we have ever tasted pear, Wyatt. You make it look delicious. Mom says she gets so mad when she buys pears at the store, just like peaches. - they always look good, but take a bite, and blech:(

    Enjoy those caramel apple treats, they look great.
