Yum! My mom and I made homemade apple butter this weekend from apples we picked in our orchard. We slow cooked them using a very cool and super easy recipe. The apple butter turned out amazing! One note, though, we almost totally blew it on the whole canning thing. Dude. Botulism. Bad. So, I have to say that we were pretty pleased with ourselves. It’s one thing to talk about all the things you want to do, it’s another thing altogether to actually do it.

I’ll post a more descriptive recipe and how to on my craft blog, but here are some links in the meantime:
