One of the things that we desperately missed while living in Okinawa was the Autumn season. I actually considered asking someone to mail us leaves so that we could toss them into the backyard and walk over them- just for the experience of feeling and hearing them crunch underfoot. And I may, or may not have, planned an event called "Autumnpalooza" to celebrate all things Autumn. I just think that there is nothing like it. And no matter how much you decorate or eat foods called pumpkin this or apple that, there is no substitute for the real thing. Just Autumn.
So imagine my surprise when we learned that there is a pick your own apple orchard and pumpkin farm only half an hour from where we lived. Well, there really isn't anything better to usher in the autumn season.
Apple sauce, apple pie, apple strudel, apple cake, apple juice, apple wine, hot apple cider.....
