autumn harvest

Our garden has been bountiful this season.  Harvest has continued late into the autumn and is just now ending.  We've had plenty of kale, arugula, tomatillos, hot peppers, broccoli and a few slow tomatoes.

Erik made a boatload of hot sauce!



We had our annual applesaucing over a few days in October.  
Apples from our farm up north of Philly - beautiful red cortlands!  
Both girls were sweet helpers - washing apples and helping turn the hand crank on the processor.  
I canned a few dozen quarts, froze some and we are enjoying a lot of it right now.



Erik's made two delicious 2 gallon batches of saurekraut in our new-to-us crock.  We are becoming addicted - so yummy!  Recently Eliza Wren and I had a hankering for a late afternoon snack, so we settled down on the kitchen floor to enjoy some together.  It hit the spot. :)
