Also, an early January warming trend and snow melt, so I rode my bicyle, as did many others. We are one of the top five cities for bicycle popularity. Another bicycle rider told me that today

Oh, I almost forgot! Putting apples into the crockpot now. Homemade chunky applesauce coming up shortly.

Welcome Dominique!

Sounds like a fun outing. I am a big fan of farmers markets and biking.

Fresh apple sauce is great, I make it as often as I can. Granny Smith apples are my pick for a sauce. We also get good amount of Fiji up in the hills of Northern CA, so I have used those as well. Then a variety called Arkansas Black turned out a good batch. The Granny Smith and lemon give it a bite that I really like. Same goes for me if I am making a pie or apple tart. Granny Smith does the trick.
