What do I love about Autumn?
Mums and pumpkins and cornstalks and Indian corn on my porch. *happy sigh*
Apple yumminess.
I did applesauce a couple days last week, and put some in the crockpot to cook down into apple butter. Oh the cinnamony, rich smells that filled my kitchen. Mmmm!
….And then I had fun finding my crafty side again. I haven’t done much of anything creative/crafty since the wedding — twas fun again! I’m giving these little apple butter jars away as gifts this season.
The scents and colors and feel in the air.
I just love the cinnamon sticks scenting the air, the coziness of a candle, the bright orange & classic white of pumpkins, crisp air in the morning, that unique smell that only fallen leaves have (I may or may not be guilty of going out of my way to walk in leaves just to hear them crunch 😉 ), sweaters & scarves, and apple cider.
Pumpkin-y everything.
Lattes and cupcakes and scones and ice cream.
Cheers for Autumn!

Sure! I looked up recipes on Pinterest than just did a variation of what I found. (Look up crockpot apple butter) http://scratchthatwanda.blogspot.ca/2011/10/apple-butter.html is one of that I based my apple butter from… I simply took applesauce, added 1/2 c. brown sugar and some cinnamon, then cooked it all night, until it looks and tastes like apple butter. Does that help?
