Apples

This week's cooler temperatures brought just a hint of fall to the region's waning days of summer. When the air starts to cool, I think of apples.

From what I'm hearing from local apple growers, this year's crop will be exceptional. Last year's apple and peach crops were obliterated, thanks to the Easter freeze. The growers told me that this year we've had an almost perfect mixture of rain and dry spells for a sweet and delicious crop. Yum!

I've found apple recipes and trivia that will be on the Sun's Taste page on Wednesday. I'll try to post a few other apple recipes here over the next few days as I have time. If you have favorites, please feel free to post here.
