Apple Picking

Looking for a fun Fall activity... go apple picking.  We went this past weekend to Carter Mountain Orchard.  It was hot (nature hadn't gotten the memo that it was Fall), but still fun.

Pack a picnic to enjoy before or during the picking.  Ours included:

• Turkey Wraps with Vermont White Cheddar, Sauteed Vidalia Onions and Crisp Apple Slices
• Black Bean Dip with Carrots
• Chips
• Cheeses and Peanut Butter to pair with freshly picked apples (don't forget a knife and cutting board)
• Eclair Cake (courtesy of my mother)

We wandered among the trees, picking Jonagold and Golden Delicious from the high branches.  By the end we left with our freshly picked goodies, apple cider donuts from the bakery, fresh apple cider... hot and sweaty from our excursion but excited about the deliciousness ahead of us.
