Why would anyone take the family apple-picking on a chilly, rainy day? For the warm apple-cider donuts coated with sugar and cinnamon, that's why!

Hey! That's exactly what we were doing yesterday too! Took my dad and nieces and nephews to Schutt's cider mill in Webster NY for apple picking, cider and fry cakes. In NY, the cider has to be pasteurized (two things ruined - cider and stinky cheeses), but you still just can't wait to tailgate in the parking lot. Autumn isn't Autumn until the first fry cake and swig of cold cider! Dark skies, drizzle, family and Dvorak on the radio - heaven as far as I'm concerned! Cheers!

I never went apple picking as a kid, so I'm making up for lost time!
