Spud Harvest- Day 5

We tried something new. When we were in the grocery store the other day, some Albertson's employee had cleverly stocked caramels next to the apples. I remember enjoying caramel apples in the fall so I caved and bought the caramels (I had a coupon, too!). So on the fifth day of my kids being out of school for no good reason, we made caramel apples.

Betcha can't guess which one is mine. I have decided that despite growing up with an apple orchard, I'm not that fond of apples. I don't like red delicious or granny smith (even for baking). I tend to buy gala apples or golden delicious for my family. Randy likes honeycrisp, but that's a new variety and they're expensive. Hiding under these luscious layers of caramel are gala apples. I like nuts on everything and decided that caramel and nuts would make for a yummy apple. Let me just report that it was really good.

Now, what are we going to do next week?
