Apple season is firmly upon us, so I'm celebrating some of my apple varieties,
🍎 Roter Mond (Red Moon), a red-fleshed apple from Germany/Russia?
🍏 Cavan Rose, a great one for tarts from the Irish Seedsavers
🟡 Frank's Seedling, also from the Seedsavers for eating fresh and juicing. It produces a beautiful, golden juice with notes of pear. A seedling variety raised by the father of Dr. Keith Lamb (1919 – 2011), founder of the Irish Apple Collection.

Me, doing just about anything on the farm these days. 😁
Will need to set up little bins again: for eating now, for juicing, for baking/apple sauce, for storage. The West of Ireland is pretty hit and miss for apples, never mind any other top fruit, but when there is a good apple year, it's a joy.

I would bake all day if the dishes did themselves. These glazed pumpkin donuts were 👩🍳 😘
I stand by apple season>pumpkin season, but it was a birthday donut for someone who loves pumpkin and donuts.
