is apples.  Last weekend my family went apple-picking.  Being a fan of food and where it comes from I wanted my daughter to learn that apples come from trees, just like we showed her in May that strawberries can be picked off of low bushes.  But apples brought me back to North Carolina, where my grandparents lived and my grandmother made apple butter from scratch.  Unfortunately my grandma passed years ago and with her went the recipe.  Now I’m on the hunt for a good apple butter recipe that my daughter can help me make.  If you have one please comment!
