Not even your own homemade? Wow. Geez Ray, is that all?! I'm kidding. We
spent the day making apple sauce and are not yet done but we won't end up
with 85 quarts. My guess is we'll have 18-20 quarts, but we still have 2
bushels to do something else with and half will be pie filling and the
remainder will be dried.

I put lemon juice in ours and cinnamon. No sugar.

The deer are so bad that I found half-eaten apples and 'crumbs' on our
mudroom porch deck - they came right up to the the dang porch last night and
ate 1/5 of the huge box of apples we picked yesterday.
