Tuesday afternoon was the big make applesauce day! Driel and Moriah came to help.
We picked the apples Saturday in Provo. That was an adventure. Logan and Calvin monopolized the ladder. Thanks to Evan, the top of the tree got picked.
We had a slow start to making the applesauce. First lunch and getting Calvin off to school. Moriah got stung by a bee, so she needed her mom and lots of love and finally went down for a nap. Sterling needed to eat and thankfully took a long nap. Bridget was overtired, as usual, and after I got her to sleep…we were on a roll. Logan was the king of the show. He gave Driel quite an earful of information, while he worked the machine to make the sauce. Driel cut the apples, I tried to keep the apples rotated from boiling to the “squeezo strainer” where logan worked and into the jars for canning. Too bad there are no pictures of Logan working. He lasted several hours! What a great applesauce helper!
Canning is always sooo much work! What a trooper Logan is to stay at it that long! Good job Kathy and Driel, and Logan.
Logan was amazing! He was so cute. He kept telling me that maybe I could take home some jars of applesauce and bring back the jars. He has lots of good ideas as he would say.
