A big thank-you again to everyone who joined in the fun!! I love this Farmgirl Apple Festival and sharing great memories and recipes together. It feels like a big family tradition now and I love that many newcomers have also jumped in to participate.
You all know what comes next.....Yep, Our Apple Pie Sunday on September 24. Every year, we hear about great pies being made and the recipes used in families for generations. I will be sending out a reminder a week before so we can participate if we are able.
Yum!! In my latest catalogue from Vermont Country Store, Eliot Orton writes about the tradition of apple pies in Vermont. I loved this last paragraph:" And in Vermont, it is considered fine to have a a slice of pied cheese for breakfast, if you plan to "do a day's work". As an incentive, that's hard to beat!" Isn't this just great? How many of you have enjoyed pie for breakfast with cheese to prepare to do some work? If you have, please share here so we all can learn and enjoy any family traditions you have had regarding pie for breakfast.
I will start by saying that I have had apple pie with cheese for breakfast on many occasions. It is wonderful with a cup of coffee in place of my regular boring healthy cereal !! LOL!!
I will be sharing more from Eliot Orton's letter to everyone in my post to remind people of Apple Pie Sunday so stay tuned!!
