Gals I forgot something. For those of you making apple pie filling - here's something else I do.
I keep all the scraps, peels, cores, etc. and place them in a gal. bag in freezer. This winter I will have free potpourri. Add a few strips to a small pan of water with a little vanilla or cinnamin and you have fresh baked smells throughout the house.
I can't believe I forgot this point.
I hate to waste anything!!!!!!.
