Yesterday we took our school work to the park. It was a beautiful cool morning for north FL!!

We spent an hour studying then took a break and walked the Heritage Trail.

I asked the kids if they would let me take one more picture like this....I have many from the time they were real little. I want to find them all and compile them somehow into a sweet memory!!
They were willing! :)

After the park, we went to my friends Angie's house. She asked to use my Victorio Strainer in exchange for some applesauce! I was all over that!! I haven't made applesauce since we moved south and miss it!! There is nothing so yummy as fresh applesauce with a little cinnamon sugar! :)
 |
| Ripe, poignant apples! |

| Working together gets the job done. |
After making the applesauce, Angie dug up two rows of peanuts in her garden.

We pulled them off the plants and this is what we got! Mmmm...someone will enjoy some yummy boiled peanuts one day! :)
On the way home, we drove up the road from our house. I wanted to get some pics of the beautiful cotton fields.

We were just in time, because they were in the middle of harvesting!! We sat and watched them for a few minutes. I'd love to ride along in a cotton picker sometime and watch the whole process!!
It was a lovely Fall day! Thank you Jesus for this beautiful time of year!!
beautiful pics! Looks like fun to have school outside! Would you consider doing a blog on the process of boiling peanuts? And then you can them? Sounds interesting! Must be a southern thing? Must the peanuts be fresh or can the store bought peanuts work as well?
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Brenda, I could do a post on them! I have an album on facebook from a few years ago detailing the process, so it wouldn't be hard to move the pics over here! :)
DeleteYou do need to use raw peanuts! At least I've never heard of anyone using store bought. Those are already dried. :)
