cider press
This past Saturday, an hours drive south of the city and you'll come to a most storybook farm...
See? It is really as magical as it looks. Truly. And of course, what did I do there? I pressed apples into cider of course (most typical weekend activity in autumn)
Those apples are freezing cold, they sit in chilly water waiting to be thrown into the press...
But then, despite having cold hands, you get this: the product! Amazing, delicious cider. Fresh off the farm!
Hm? Does the above remind you of anything? Hmm. Think real hard now, this is a test!

Twilight cover? ;-) I love the pictures. The farm looks amazing. Where is it, and what is it called?

Sounds delish! And another vote for the Twilight cover. On yours and Emily's recomendation I actually read the series over the Summer with an emergency purchase of the last one in Spain the day it was published!
Fab! Can't wait for the film!

look at you city college girl making your way into the country! I love that you have those two sides to you -- trendy & traditional.
Didn't emily kate just do a similar photo?
Our ward is having it's annual harvest party next weekend and they always set up a big cider press out back for fresh apple cider. A great fall activity.

That cider looks so delicious! I wish they had some apple orchards around here, as it seems like everyone is enjoying the autumn harvest but me :).
