We love September for pretty much 3 reasons. Number 1 the weather gets cooler, number 2 football season starts, and number 3 we can go apple picking. Every year we head out to Lewin farms in Calverton. Lewin Farms is great because they have dwarf apple trees so the kids can reach all the apples, and the farm is huge so you can pick a ton of apples.

The farm is about an hour away so we like to visit the farm stand after picking all our apples. We always pick way to many apples so making an apple pie is a must, I also made some Apple Rose puff pastry treats this year and they came out really good. The girls love some popcorn and Vera and I love the roasted sweet corn with plenty of salty seasoning.

Vera and Olivia made their own mini apple pies and for Olivia’s first try at making homemade pie dough they came out pretty good. I made an apple pie for my parents which made my father extremely happy cause he could eat a whole apple pie by himself plus a gallon of vanilla ice cream. Anyway we had a lot of fun and I still have plenty of apples leftover.
