Feeling neglected?

Okay, so now that I have successfully neglected my blog for a full two months (and then some), I will attempt to get back in the groove and try to entertain you all with my humble little life. 


I've been busy enjoying the autumn season, and have composed blog posts in my head about what I've been doing, but I don't think I have been very good at capturing all those moments with my camera. I think my attempts have been a little sketchy.


I'll start with one that looks pretty complete- Homemade Crock-pot Applesauce







I don't like applesauce that is too sweet, so when I make mine I don't use any sugar. I just throw the apple slices into the crock-pot with lots of cinnamon and a little nutmeg (of course, because I hail from from the Nutmeg State) and I cook it on the low setting for about 4 hours. Then I drain off some of the excess juice and stir the apples just a little to mash them a bit, but not too much because I like it a bit chunky. It's so good when it still warm, a real autumn comfort food!
