I picked the best for you

    Yesterday we picked a bazillion apples. Yes, a bazillion. And this gal, who doesn't bake, is attempting my mom's apple cake recipe. I'll report bake later on how it turned out.

    Off to catch up on your streams. Have a great Sunday!!

      Thanks, this apple sure looks juice but look at what happened to Adam after he accepted the apple and took a bite? Its stuck in his throat forever Lol.

      Love the details and DoF here Jaime. Looking forward to pictures of the apple pie.

    41. eRachel11 (32 months ago | reply)

      Have to say i just love everything about this shot! wonderful DOF and I really like the overall idea/concept. Amazing and a definite fav!

    42. Sonora Guy (32 months ago | reply)

      I have but one word for you. Lard. Really, it's disgusting, but oh so yummy. And butter. Lots of butter. And sugar. Can't forget sugar. So, I guess that's three words. But, that makes me think... do you really need the apples? :-) How about a lard/butter/sugar pie? Hmmm. We'll have to give it a better name than that. How about a "cupboard pie". That sounds nice and country and good for you too. Can you whip me up one of those please? In the meantime,I'll be looking at your wonderful photograph.

    43. oneworldmj (32 months ago | reply)

      mmmm... this apple looks so yummy - I can just taste the sweet crunch! We actually got a ton of apples last weekend and have eaten almost all of them already. They're just extra good when you go pick your own! Love the beautiful DoF and hands reaching out. Hope you had a wonderful weekend Jaime! :-)

      I can't wait to hear how the cake turned out! Since, you know...I haven't made it to that picture yet. :) Wonderful capture. This was an excellent idea and the leaf really does add to the image!
