Apples

[mix]

Let's list all the things you can do with apples. I will start:

1. Crisp, pie, cake, butter, jelly, sauce.

I do this all through September and October because our trees are monster producers. I'm sick of apples by this time of year.

2. You don't always have to cook with them.

3. Bears take some. Otherwise they sit around and go bad.

4. Uses for apples:

*Pelting the teen punks who toilet paper my tree every Halloween.
*Hollow one out and it makes a nifty vessel for smoking. It also smells really nice.
*They're just hard enough to fit into and plug the rainspout of the guy who steals my WaPo every morning.
*Doorstop.
*Conveniently baseball-shaped and sized. Much less likely to go through a windshield in the parking lot.
*Applesauce and cider-vinegar mixed in a 5:1 ratio will attract flies in droves. Pour into any hollow wall-space to prank and annoy your friends for weeks.
*Can easily be carved into an idol of your favorite deity with a spoon.
*Stick one down the front of your Speedo to impress the ladies at the community pool.

12. Over engineered.

We used to just cut out the holes, top and side, put some aluminum foil in the top and poke holes in it with a toothpick. Use as a pipe then eat the evidence. LOL

14. If you live where there's a hard freeze, juice them (leave enough

solids in so you have, essentially, apple cider).

Put in into gallon jugs, and bury them in the fall a couple of feet deep. In the spring, you'll have wonderful, tasty hard cider to drink (about the same alcohol strength as beer).
