As August draws to a close, the harvest begins. It isn't quite fall yet, but I am ready for cooler days, and the flavors of fall. Apples are my transition theme for cooking and decorating this time of year. Labor Day weekend is our local Apple Festival, and it was gorgeous weather for it with …

Apple Festival, Apple Tablescape and Treats
It is Apple Festival weekend with a street fair, air show, classic car shows and lots more. There is so much to do all over town as downtown is closed to traffic, and all the area orchards are open with activities and apples for sale.

Apple Festival Weekend
Labor Day weekend is Apple Festival time. This annual event celebrates our county's primary agricultural crop, with a downtown street festival that lasts four days. We usually try to get there for at least one day, often going for both the street festival and then coming back on Monday after they pick up all the …
It’s Apple Festival Time

Instead, the apple orchards are doing individual sales of their apples this weekend, allowing …

Apple Tablescape
Apple Festival weekend starts today, a four-day, annual, Labor Day weekend event, done like only a small town can do it. It is the end of summer, and almost time for my favorite season, autumn, but not quite yet. So, an apple tablescape is in order once again. I put this one together using only …
King Apple Parade
The final part of the Apple Festival festivities is the King Apple parade on Labor Day. After delivering my entries to the State Fair, I ran home to get DH and we got downtown miraculously finding a parking space only two blocks away from the parade route. The Corvette club was going by, and we …
