I made the annual trip to Uncle John's Cider Mill yesterday, and I was so disappointed that the weather didn't cooperate. It was absolutely gorgeous. The Weather Channel said 74 degrees, but I think it was closer to 80. And too warm to wear my new denim jacket and red Tweedy Mitts. I had been looking forward to a cool, crisp autumn day, but it was not to be.
So sad.
The day was not lost, however. I did manage to finish one of Jeeves's Garter Ribs (minus grafting the toe) just before we arrived at the Cider Mill.
And we managed to buy a peck of apples.
Honey Crisps are absolutely the best apple in the world. Among their many virtues: they are never mealy, they are a perfect combination of sweet and tangy, they are juicy, and they have a long shelf life.
I think I'll go eat one right now.

I went last weekend, and tried to bust out the new peacoat. It, too, was overkill. :) I totally agree on the honey crisps!
