Applesauce

WOW it is really pouring here! This was expected and there was a project bearing down heavily on my mind that needed to be done so this is the day!

I wasn't going to make any this year. It is labor intensive for us and our energy has waned. BUT! I did buy a peck and when I looked in the freezer I saw that there were only two quarts left so.....

Way back in the far corner of the under counter cupboards I dug and found the large old kettle and the old Foley food mill.  I'll not go into detail but must tell you that the end product was well worth the energy spent doing this the "old way."

The only thing I added was a few shakes of cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. The unlidded one is lunchtime dessert today.
