hi all, haven't posted anything here since last spring <snip>
Thought I'd introduce something other than politics, so here goes.
I made like a bee last spring and handpollinated a lot of our fruit

now rewarding me with a few boxes of fruit. I'm trying out making
crabapple liquer with some of them and I pickled a bunch, but I still
have dozens of pounds of fruit left.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH CRABAPPLES???
