Hood River Weekend

I am spending the weekend with my brother Ken and it was a day of variety! We started by going to a fruit stand where I got over 40 lbs of apples in my three favorite varieties. I made Apple Crisp and dried some apples this afternoon...I ate about half the slices before the apples were done! mmm mmm good! Not a new recipe, but a goodie nonetheless! I ate deer sausage for lunch and elk pepperoni this afternoon...and Chantrell mushrooms (why I was so adventurous I do not know!)




We went horseback riding and I got up to a trot quite a few times...and I am already sore! It was such a nice day for a ride and the fall leaves here are super beautiful!





After dinner and chores, we carved some pumpkins and I think they turned out really well!!! Now I am ready for bed...but did I mention that I got a two hour nap in this afternoon! It was GOOD!






Hopefully I will make lots of new recipes to share this week!
