A week and a half ago my friend from church gave me a bag of apple she picked from her mom's apple tree. She said she had a ton and I offered to take some off her hands if she had too many :) She did have some to spare so she gave them to me. She told me she made homemade applesauce with some of hers. Since I had a lot of apples I decided to do it too. I've made it before (for a class) but I remember it being harder than she said it was. So today I spent some of my morning making a small batch. It was so easy and I think it turned out ok. At least Jack said he liked it. I don't really like applesauce so I didn't try it. But Jack ate some and claimed he liked it, although he didn't really eat very much of it. I think I might start making my own applesauce instead of buying now. It must be so much cheaper and probably healthier because it's just apples and cinnemon. I think Jackson likes cinnemon applesauce better so I added some, although maybe too much... It was pretty brown. Now that I've mastered applesauce I'm considering making my own baby food... At least some of it. If it's as easy as applesauce then it would be worth it. But I'll have to research how to make it though... Have any of you made your own baby food? Is it easy?

Looks yummy! Some of my friends make their own baby food. They say they just puree the food in a blender. One of my friends freezes it in ice cube trays so it keeps longer. Good luck!
