i say apples...

"even if i knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, i would still plant my apple tree." - martin luther

i am dreaming in apples today. all kinds of apples. i am sitting at my desk fantasizing about dinner parties that look like this....

and cozy fall picnics with spiced cider and apple snacks...

and of spending sunday afternoon at the small farm food fest at shelburne orchards looking just as stylish as she does...

so, i feel i have no choice other than to embrace this new obsession and therefore pass it along to you all. so, i apologize in advance, but the next few weeks are going to be all about apples here at lovevermont. it is a fleeting, but important season and one that i want to celebrate while we can....after all, it will be pumpkin season before we know it. (although to be fair, pumpkin season just might trump apples, but only time will tell!)

p.s. did you know the average person eats 65 apples per year? seriously, they do. start counting!
