Apple picking at Steele Orchard in Cullman, Alabama — started with apple cider slushee and an apple fried pie
It’s actually so easy — a gentle tug with the long-handled basket on the apple you like, and they drop in

Twenty-plus years of documenting the South's vernacular art, visionary environments and traditions….plus modern art exhibits, Faulkner and Eudora, and This Week's Various. Welcome.
Getting ready for Rosh Hashanah! Here are some little projects from previous years that went really well. This year a new try for me is making apple butter with the apples picked this past weekend at Steele Orchard in Cullman, Alabama.
Round challah (my favorite do-anything-with bread recipe is this one)
Here’s how to make these great pomegranate rolls
Other ideas I’ve done:
Decorated caramel apples (just follow most any recipe for caramel apples, and decoate as you like as a group activity — sweet to write the new year date in chocolate)
A birthday cake for the world (did this when the boys were little and was super sweet)
If you celebrate, sending you sweetest wishes. If this isn’t your holiday, it’s still a great time to look up recipes for honey cake, apple desserts, and lots more fun. xoxo!
