Apple Picking 10-4-09



Both Zane and my first time going apple picking, and I think Amanda's too. Who knows, I can't remember a month ago, it could have been ALL our first time.
We ate soooo many apples in the orchard that by the time we left, we didn't want to eat any of the apples we bought to take home. :(
We got a bushel and split it between the Z&Me and Cindi&Amanda. WAAAAAAY too many apples. Next time it's probably going to be a half-bushel or a 'peck'.
This is surprising, considering I grew up around farms and farmland and crops and such, but I had never actually heard the word 'peck' properly used outside of 'peter piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.' It's an actual thing, a peck! Go figure.
I know that we can't wait to go again next year.
